Embodiment Construction

[0018] The present invention includes apparatus and methods for data replication. Example apparatuses include: a plurality of sense circuits including respective sense amplifiers and computing components; and a controller. The controller may be configured to cause data values ​​stored in the first computing component to be replicated such that the data values ​​are propagated to the second computing component.

[0019] Carry propagation (eg, the transfer of data between storage locations in a memory device) can be a bottleneck for various arithmetic operations (eg, horizontal arithmetic operations). As used herein, horizontal arithmetic operations include operations in which the same number of bits are located in different storage locations.

[0020] In several embodiments, the amount of time and / or power consumed by carry-propagation operations and / or the amount of physical wiring used for carry-propagation operations may be reduced compared to some methods. For example, em...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to semiconductor memories and methods, and more particularly, the present invention relates to apparatus and methods for data replication. Background technique [0002] Memory devices are typically provided as internal semiconductor integrated circuits in a computer or other electronic system. There are many different types of memory, including volatile and non-volatile memory. Volatile memory may require power to maintain its data (eg, host data, error data, etc.) and includes random access memory (RAM), dynamic random access memory (DRAM), static random access memory (SRAM), synchronous Dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) and thyristor random access memory (TRAM). Non-volatile memory can provide persistent data by retaining stored data when no power is supplied and can include NAND flash memory, NOR flash memory, and resistive variable memory such as phase change random access memory (PCRAM), resistive rando...
