ABSTRACT:
A method of implementing classification CAM functionality using primarily RAM cells is disclosed. The method offers significantly more table entries in a given area, or significantly less area for a given table size than conventional ternary CAMs. The method is much more power-efficient, cheaper, and offers a greater range of features than conventional CAMs.
