ABSTRACT:
A memory system 104 includes an array 200 of memory cells arranged in rows and columns. Circuitry 208 is included for selectively performing logic operations on a bit of data stored in a selected cell using a bit of received modifying data and mode data bit for selecting a logic operation for performance. Circuitry 208 for performing logic operations is operable during an AND logic operation to write data into the cell when the bit of modifying data is a logic zero and maintaining an existing bit stored in the cell when the bit of modifying data is a logic one. Also included is circuitry 207, 210 for receiving and latching the mode data bit and the modifying data through a single port.
