Temperature readings for memory devices to reduce temperature compensation errors

A system includes a memory array, a thermometer, and control logic, operatively coupled with the memory array and the thermometer, to perform operations including causing the thermometer to obtain a first temperature result, monitoring a time since obtaining the first temperature result, determining whether the time satisfies a threshold time condition, in response to determining that the time satisfies the threshold time condition, causing the thermometer to obtain a second temperature result from an automatic temperature reading, determining a difference between the second temperature result and a previously stored temperature result, and filtering the second temperature result based on the difference to obtain a new stored temperature result.

BATTERY SYSTEM

A battery system includes a battery module, thermistor, and ECU. The thermistor detects the temperature of a first area in the battery module. The ECU calculates the estimated temperature of a second area having a higher temperature than the first area in the battery module, by adding a temperature correction amount to a detected value of the thermistor. The ECU is configured to set the temperature correction amount according to a time differential value of the detected value. Then, the ECU sets the temperature correction amount such that the rate of increase of the estimated temperature of the second area does not exceed a predetermined rate that is larger than zero.

TRACTION BATTERY SELF-HEATING CONTROL METHOD AND DEVICE

Disclosed is a traction battery self-heating control method and a device. Acquiring a second temperature of a rotor at a current sampling time according to system parameters and a first temperature of the rotor at a previous sampling time, and estimating a third temperature of the rotor at a next sampling time according to the first temperature and the second temperature, and stopping the self-heating of the traction battery when the third temperature reaches a demagnetization temperature of the rotor.

Temperature-based adjustments for in-memory matrix multiplication

Techniques for performing in-memory matrix multiplication, taking into account temperature variations in the memory, are disclosed. In one example, the matrix multiplication memory uses ohmic multiplication and current summing to perform the dot products involved in matrix multiplication. One downside to this analog form of multiplication is that temperature affects the accuracy of the results. Thus techniques are provided herein to compensate for the effects of temperature increases on the accuracy of in-memory matrix multiplications. According to the techniques, portions of input matrices are classified as effective or ineffective. Effective portions are mapped to low temperature regions of the in-memory matrix multiplier and ineffective portions are mapped to high temperature regions of the in-memory matrix multiplier. The matrix multiplication is then performed.
