Toward Spintronics Non-volatile Computing-in-Memory Architecture

With the development of spintronics memory technology, more and more research has been focused on the design of Computing-in-Memory (CiM) architectures using spin devices, including in-memory logic computing and in-memory neural network computing architectures. In this chapter, the focus is mainly on the implementation of in-memory logical/numerical computation using spintronics memory technology and the realization of spintronics neural network architecture. The state-of-the-art designs are reviewed and analyzed, including spin-in-memory logic gates, highly parallel multi-bit spin logic computing architectures, in-memory neural network architectures, and system-level CiM integrated architectures, with an observation of future trends.
