ABSTRACT:
A content-addressed memory system stores large amounts of data for quick access by keyword value combinations. The system comprises a controller and a plurality of content-addressed memory chips. Each chip comprises a plurality of word cells with logic to enable independent, parallel operation of each word cell, storage of a record of closely related data in more than one word cell, and accessing an entire record when data in one word cell is matched to the keyword value.
