Abstract

See full text

A CAM cell (200) can include a compare section (206) and a configuration section (208). In a binary mode of operation, two compare data values can be driven on value lines VL1 to VL4 (216-0 to 216-3) for comparison against two stored data values. In a ternary mode of operation, one compare data value can driven on two of the value lines, while the other two value lines can be forced to a potential unrelated to a compare data value allowing for dynamic configuration between binary and ternary modes of operation.
