Vector-matrix multiplication accelerator implemented using folded resistive crossbars

Abstract

Technologies relating to folded crossbar array circuits and methods for reducing pitch match issues within folded crossbar array circuits and increasing the scalability of folded crossbar array circuits are disclosed. An example crossbar array circuit includes: a first folded column circuit folded as at least two portions; a first ADC; a first plurality of DACs; and a first plurality of access controls, wherein the first folded column circuit connected to the first ADC, the first plurality of DACs, and the first plurality of access controls. In some implementations, the three portions comprises a first column of crossbar devices, a second column of crossbar devices, and a third column of crossbar devices, and wherein the first column of crossbar devices, the second column of crossbar devices, and the third column of crossbar devices are configured to be controlled by the first plurality of access controls.
