Abstract

Energy-efficient machine-learning and physical unclonable function (PUF) becomes popular in Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications for saliency detection and privacy protection at sensor node. A machine-learning and PUF engine for IoT applications is presented in this work with a current mirror cross-bar (CMCB) array being a shared core, reducing silicon area. A novel dimension expansion technique is proposed to increase weight matrix dimension beyond the physically implemented array with small hardware and energy overhead. A signed multiply-and-accumulation is realized in CMCB with differential current path and 2-phase conversion. The proposed engine achieves an error rate of 6.34% on MNIST digit recognition task with an energy efficiency of 2.86 TOPS/W. The PUF achieves a native BER of 2.3% across corners and extremely low area/CRP of 4.17×10−59 µm2/CRP.
