Apparatuses and methods for cache operations

Last updated:

Abstract:

The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for cache operations. An example apparatus includes a memory device including a plurality of subarrays of memory cells, where the plurality of subarrays includes a first subset of the respective plurality of subarrays and a second subset of the respective plurality of subarrays. The memory device includes sensing circuitry coupled to the first subset, the sensing circuitry including a sense amplifier and a compute component. The first subset is configured as a cache to perform operations on data moved from the second subset. The apparatus also includes a cache controller configured to direct a first movement of a data value from a subarray in the second subset to a subarray in the first subset.
