[From the last episode: We looked at different ways of accessing a single bit in a memory, including the use of multiplexors.] Today we’re going to look more specifically at memory cells – these things we’ve been calling bit cells. We mentioned that there are many ways of making them, […]

[From the last episode: We put the various pieces of a memory together to show the whole thing.] Before we finally turn our memory discussion into an AI discussion, let’s take on one annoying little detail that I’ve referred to a few times, but have kept putting off. Just a […]

[From the last episode: We looked at the general principles of how a memory is organized.] We’ve talked about lots of different parts of a memory, so now it’s time to put them together. From the memory array we looked at last week, we’re going to add decoders and sense […]

[From the last episode: We looked at two important circuits: decoders and sense amplifiers] We’re building up to an interesting machine-learning technique, but we’re having to set lots of groundwork first. We saw Ohm’s Law two weeks ago, and we looked at decoders and sense amps last week. We’ll come […]

[From the last episode: We looked at some fundamental electrical concepts, with a focus on Ohm’s Law.] Having looked at Ohm’s Law, we’re now going to veer in a completely different direction. But not to worry: we’ll bring it all back together in a couple weeks. Before we can do […]
