Abstract:
A neuromorphic circuit, chip, and method are provided. The neuromorphic circuit includes a crossbar synaptic array cell. The crossbar synaptic array cell includes a Complimentary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) transistor having an on-resistance controlled by a gate voltage of the CMOS transistor to update a weight of the crossbar synaptic array cell. The gate voltage of the CMOS transistor is controlled by performing a charge sharing technique that updates the weight of the crossbar synaptic array cell using non-overlapping pulses on control lines that are aligned with a set of row lines and a set of column lines.
