Crossbar array, e.g. for vector matrix calculations

Abstract

The invention proposes a crossbar array with a plurality of vertical and horizontal lines, wherein signals are applied to the horizontal lines that determine the magnitudes of time delays of voltage-controlled time delay elements based on RRAM elements, the delays of which are set by the RRAM elements and by the magnitude of the signals on the horizontal lines, wherein a trigger signal (excitation signal) applied to the time delay element chain of a vertical line is transmitted with a time delay to the other end of said vertical line in order to be measured there by means of a time delay measuring element (for example, TDC), thus making the vertical line readable.
