This paper details the design of an integrate & fire (I & F) neuron ASIC and its integration
with a double barrier memristor device. The memristor has a non-volatile analog memory
characteristic which changes with time and voltage. The neuron ASIC is designed to interact
with the memristor by integrating its current and firing when a certain threshold is reached.
The resulting spikes increase the memristor's conductance and consequently the firing rate
of neuron increases. Together, the ASIC and the memristor mimics neuromorphic learning …
This paper details the design of an integrate & fire (I & F) neuron ASIC and its integration with a double barrier memristor device. The memristor has a non-volatile analog memory characteristic which changes with time and voltage. The neuron ASIC is designed to interact with the memristor by integrating its current and firing when a certain threshold is reached. The resulting spikes increase the memristor's conductance and consequently the firing rate of neuron increases. Together, the ASIC and the memristor mimics neuromorphic learning on hardware. The ASIC has been fabricated in AMS 350nm process.
