Abstract
A multiply-accumulate device (10) includes: a comparison unit (18) that compares, with a threshold voltage, a voltage generated by an electric charge stored in a storage unit (14), and outputs an output signal at timing at which the voltage exceeds the threshold voltage; and a control circuit (110) that reduces, based on a predetermined set value, a charging current to the storage unit (14) from a plurality of input units (13) connected to the storage unit (14).
