Abstract :
An experimental 64-bit m.o.s. associative memory has been developed from a limit-case design study. Speeds in excess of 50 MHz are reported at a cost per bit that could approach eight times that for a conventional m.o.s. dynamic r.a.m. The design of the basic associative memory cell is described.
