Abstract
A memory device configured to receive a processing command from an external host device may be provided. The memory device may comprise an in-memory processor configured to perform an in-memory processing operation in response to the processing command, and an error report circuit configured to provide, in response to the processing command, one or more error records indicating errors detected during the in-memory processing operation, to the external host device in response to the processing command.
Claims20
A memory device comprising:
- an in-memory processor configured to receive a processing command from an external host device and perform an in-memory processing operation in response to the processing command;
- and
- an error report circuit configured to provide, in response to the processing command, one or more error records indicating errors detected during the in-memory processing operation, to the external host device.
A memory device comprising:
- a plurality of data pins;
- a report level register configured to store a report level;
- an in-memory processor configured to perform an in-memory processing operation in response to a processing command and generate one or more error records indicating information of an error occurring during the in-memory processing operation;
- and
- an error report circuit configured to provide, based on the report level, the one or more error records of the in-memory processing operation to the plurality of data pins.
An operation method of a memory device including an in-memory processor, the operation method comprising:
- receiving a processing command;
- attempting in-memory processing corresponding to the processing command;
- and
- outputting one of default data and an error record for the in-memory processing, based on whether an error occurs during the in-memory processing,
- wherein the default data represent that the in-memory processing has no error.
