Neuromorphic Circuits

该项目对研究单位的主要贡献是开发，构建和评估电子神经形态系统，其中忆阻器直接集成为具有突触可塑性的设备，与神经元电路集成在同一芯片上。因此，可以证明使用这些电路构建的神经形态系统的潜力和可能性。主要方法是专用集成电路（ASIC）的设计和测试，系统和电路级的网络仿真，以及印刷电路板（PCB）上系统的构建，制造和评估。集成分几个步骤完成，从用于概念验证的小型电路开始，最后完成用于无监督模式学习，识别和完成的中型神经形态系统。

The major contribution of this project to the Research Unit is the development, construction, and evaluation of electronic neuromorphic systems where the memristors are directly integrated as devices with synaptic plasticity on the same chip as the neuron circuits. Thereby, the potential and possibilities of neuromorphic systems built using these circuits can be demonstrated. Main methods are design and test of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), simulations of networks on system and circuit level, as well as construction, fabrication, and evaluation of systems on printed-circuit boards (PCBs). The integration is done in several steps, starting with small circuits for proof of concept and finishing with the completion of a midsize neuromorphic system for unsupervised pattern learning, recognition, and completion.
