Apparatuses and methods to selectively perform logical operations

An apparatus, comprising:

• a sense amplifier coupled to logic circuitry, the logic circuitry including a logic circuitry storage location;
• a compute component coupled to the logic circuitry, the compute component including a first storage location;
• and
• a controller coupled to the sense amplifier, the logic circuitry, and the compute component, wherein the controller is configured to:
• cause an indication of whether a logical operation is to be performed by the apparatus to be transferred from the first storage location to the logic circuitry storage location in response to a determination that a data value of the indication is to be used in the logical operation.

An apparatus, comprising:

• a plurality of sensing components, each sensing component including a sense amplifier and a compute component, wherein each of the respective compute components of the plurality of sensing components comprises a respective logic circuitry storage location configured to receive an operand stored in a corresponding respective sensing component in response to an indication a logical operation is to be selectively performed between operands stored in the respective compute component of the plurality of sensing components and operands stored in the corresponding respective sense amplifier of the plurality of sensing components;
• and
• a controller coupled to the sensing components,
• wherein the controller is configured to:
• cause the indication of whether the logical operation is to be selectively performed between operands stored in respective compute components of the plurality of sensing components and operands stored in corresponding respective sense amplifiers of the plurality of sensing components to be stored in the respective sensing components;
• and
• cause the logical operation to be selectively performed between the operand received by the logic circuitry storage location and an operand stored in the corresponding respective sense amplifier of the plurality of sensing components.

A method, comprising:

• storing, in sensing circuitry comprising a sense amplifier and a compute component, an indication of whether a logical operation between a first operand stored in the compute component and a second operand stored in the sense amplifier is to be selectively performed;
• performing the logical operation;
• and
• moving a data value of the indication from the sensing circuitry to another storage location subsequent to performing the logical operation.

A method, comprising:

• storing, in sensing circuitry comprising a sense amplifier and a compute component, an indication of whether a logical operation between a first operand stored in the compute component and a second operand stored in the sense amplifier is to be selectively performed;
• not performing the logical operation between the first operand stored in the compute component and the second operand stored in the sense amplifier in response to the indication indicating that the logical operation is not to be performed between the first operand stored in the compute component and the second operand stored in the sense amplifier;
• and
• performing the logical operation between a third operand stored in a second compute component and a fourth operand stored in a second sense amplifier in response to the indication indicating that the logical operation is not to be performed between the first operand stored in the compute component and the second operand stored in the sense amplifier.
