Smart healthcare systems integrated with advanced deep neural networks enable real‐time health monitoring, early disease detection, and personalized treatment. In this work, a novel 3D AND‐type flash memory array with a rounded double channel for computing‐in‐memory (CIM) architecture to overcome the limitations of conventional smart healthcare systems: the necessity of high area and energy efficiency while maintaining high classification accuracy is proposed. The fabricated array, characterized by low‐power operations and high scalability with double independent channels per floor, exhibits enhanced cell density and energy efficiency while effectively emulating the features of biological synapses. The CIM architecture leveraging the fabricated array achieves high classification accuracy (93.5%) for electrocardiogram signals, ensuring timely detection of potentially life‐threatening arrhythmias. Incorporated with a simplified spike‐timing‐dependent plasticity learning rule, the CIM architecture is suitable for robust, area‐ and energy‐efficient in‐memory arrhythmia detection systems. This work effectively addresses the challenges of conventional smart healthcare systems, paving the way for a more refined healthcare paradigm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
