In recent years, convolution operations often consume a lot of time and energy in deep learning algorithms, and convolution is usually used to remove noise or extract the edges of an image. However, under data-intensive conditions, frequent operations of the above algorithms will cause a significant memory/communication burden to the computing system. This paper proposes a circuit based on spin memristor cross array to solve the problems mentioned above. First, a logic switch based on spin memristors is proposed, which realizes the control of the memristor cross array. Secondly, a new type of spin memristor cross array and peripheral circuits is proposed, which realizes the multiplication and addition operation in the convolution operation and significantly alleviates the computational memory bottleneck. At last, the color image filtering and edge extraction simulation are carried out. By calculating the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) of the image result, the processing effects of different operators are compared, and the correctness of the circuit is verified.
