IMAC-Sim: A Circuit-level Simulator For In-Memory Analog Computing Architectures
Md Hasibul Amin, Mohammed E. Elbtity, Ramtin Zand
With the increased attention to memristive-based in-memory analog computing (IMAC) architectures as an alternative for energy-hungry computer systems for machine learning applications, a tool that enables exploring their device- and circuit-level design space can significantly boost the research and development in this area. Thus, in this paper, we develop IMAC-Sim, a circuit-level simulator for the design space exploration of IMAC architectures. IMAC-Sim is a Python-based simulation framework, which creates the SPICE netlist of the IMAC circuit based on various device- and circuit-level hyperparameters selected by the user, and automatically evaluates the accuracy, power consumption, and latency of the developed circuit using a user-specified dataset. Moreover, IMAC-Sim simulates the interconnect parasitic resistance and capacitance in the IMAC architectures and is also equipped with horizontal and vertical partitioning techniques to surmount these reliability challenges. IMAC-Sim is a flexible tool that supports a broad range of device- and circuit-level hyperparameters. In this paper, we perform controlled experiments to exhibit some of the important capabilities of the IMAC-Sim, while the entirety of its features is available for researchers via an open-source tool.
