Abstract

A content association type memory is composed of MxN memory units, N mask circuits, M priority circuits, controller circuit, precharging transistors, read amplifier circuit, and bidirectional data port. It features that its stored contents are associated with each other, so no need of address code and decode. Its advantages are high reliability, and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a content associative memory (CASM for short) in the field of semiconductor devices, which is especially suitable for content storage, table query, pattern recognition, fuzzy query and other functions in equipment such as computers, wireless communications, Internet and monitoring systems Lenovo memory device. Background technique [0002] At present, the memory used in cache, table query, pattern recognition, fuzzy query and other occasions is mainly content addressable memory (CAM for short). The query method of CAM is more complicated. The query data is compared with the data stored in CAM. Send matching signals, then encode these matching signals, and then determine the corresponding address through the address decoder of the memory (RAM for short), and then the corresponding content is read out. This query mode is directly associated with the address, its working speed is slow, and it cannot perform functions such as fast...
