Briefing

  • KAIST Memristor Circuit – Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) university team develops nonvolatile memristor circuit, component that regulates electrical current flow in mobile and wearable devices
  • Combined Data Storage and Processing – KAIST’s logic-in-memory circuit performs data storage and logic operations simultaneously, calculating multiple values at once, resulting in less computational delay compared to transistor-based systems
  • Conventional Systems Disadvantages – Conventional transistor-based systems' volatile architecture creates battery supply and standby period issues, which limits potential applications for mobile devices, while separated memory and processor causes delayed data transfer
