Memory chip capable of performing artificial intelligence operation and method thereof

A memory chip capable of performing artificial intelligence operation, comprising:

• a memory array, comprising a plurality of memory areas, wherein the memory areas are configured to store digitized input data and weight data;
• a memory controller, coupled to the memory array via a bus dedicated to an artificial intelligence engine;
• and
• the artificial intelligence engine, coupled to the memory controller, and configured to access the memory array via the memory controller and the bus to obtain the digitized input data and the weight data,
• wherein the artificial intelligence engine performs a neural network operation based on the digitized input data and the weight data;
• and
• wherein a bus width of the bus is greater than or equal to a data volume of a whole row of each of a plurality of memory banks of each of the memory areas.
