| 20110180691 | DATA PROCESSING CIRCUIT WITH AN ELEMENTARY PROCESSOR, DATA PROCESSING ASSEMBLY INCLUDING AN ARRAY OF SUCH CIRCUITS, AND MATRIX SENSOR INCLUDING SUCH AN ASSEMBLY - A data processing circuit includes a data processing unit including two signal-conversion circuits and controlled switches connected to inputs and outputs of the conversion circuits. The data processing unit further includes a binary signal inlet, a binary signal outlet, and a memory unit. The memory unit includes capacitors each storing a binary piece of data. The capacitors are connected to a memory bus via switches. The bus is connected to the processing unit. In response to control signals provided to the controlled switches, the data processing unit performs at least the following operations: writing a binary datum in a capacitor, reading from a capacitor a binary datum stored therein and applying the datum to an output, and logically combining binary data stored in at least two capacitors. | 07-28-2011 |
