DAISM: Digital Approximate In-SRAM Multiplier-based Accelerator for DNN Training and Inference
CoRR(2023)
摘要
DNNs are widely used but face significant computational costs due to matrix
multiplications, especially from data movement between the memory and
processing units. One promising approach is therefore Processing-in-Memory as
it greatly reduces this overhead. However, most PIM solutions rely either on
novel memory technologies that have yet to mature or bit-serial computations
that have significant performance overhead and scalability issues. Our work
proposes an in-SRAM digital multiplier, that uses a conventional memory to
perform bit-parallel computations, leveraging multiple wordlines activation. We
then introduce DAISM, an architecture leveraging this multiplier, which
achieves up to two orders of magnitude higher area efficiency compared to the
SOTA counterparts, with competitive energy efficiency.
