Abstract

A memory device includes: in-memory operation units to perform in-memory processing of an operation pipelined in multi-pipeline stages; memory banks assigned to the plurality of in-memory operation units such that a set of n memory banks is assigned to each of the in-memory operation units, each memory bank performing an access operation of data requested by each of the plurality of in-memory operation units while the pipelined operation is performed, wherein n is a natural number; and a memory die in which the in-memory operation units, the memory banks, and command pads configured to receive a command signal from an external source are arranged. Each set of the n memory banks includes a first memory bank having a first data transmission distance to the command pads and a second memory bank having a second data transmission distance to the command pads that is larger than the first data transmission distance.
