Storage and calculation integrated intelligent chip, control method and controller

Abstract

The invention provides a storage and calculation integrated intelligent chip, a control method and a controller, the storage and calculation integrated intelligent chip is provided with standard storage bus interfaces, the storage bus interfaces are very easy to mount on an external bus of a processor when a system is upgraded, and the system does not need to be greatly changed when the storage and calculation integrated intelligent chip is used; the intelligent chip comprises a storage and calculation integrated array area, and calculation acceleration of an artificial neural network can be achieved through an analog signal circuit. The intelligent chip can convert an access instruction transmitted by a storage bus into a configuration read-write instruction of a storage and calculation integrated array area and a control instruction of training/prediction calculation, and cooperative operation of a processor and a storage conforms to the current most basic von Noiemann architecture, and compared with a heterogeneous calculation cooperative architecture of the processor and a calculation acceleration chip, realization is easier; a basic operation system does not need to be transformed; and the non-volatile characteristic of the data can be fully utilized, and the multi-process sharing and the remote sharing or migration of the data in different front-end nodes are very convenient to realize.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the fields of artificial intelligence, storage-computing integrated technology and chip technology, and in particular to a storage-computing integrated smart chip, a control method and a controller. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the scale of artificial neural networks is getting larger and larger, and the thirst for computing power is becoming stronger and stronger. The computing efficiency of general-purpose CPUs and GPUs cannot meet the needs of artificial neural network computing. To become a new type of computing chip, it needs to work with a general-purpose CPU. [0003] The development of nanotechnology has given birth to a new generation of non-volatile storage technology represented by phase-change storage. Using the characteristics of nano-devices that change in resistance under electric pulse excitation, bionic synapses are designed. Using the...
