Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a neuromorphic integrated circuit, including in many embodiments, a neural network disposed in a multiplier array in a memory sector of the integrated circuit, and a plurality of multipliers of the multiplier array, a multiplier thereof including at least one transistor-based cell configured to store a synaptic weight of the neural network, an input configured to accept digital input pulses for the multiplier, an output configured to provide digital output pulses of the multiplier, and a charge integrator, where the charge integrator is configured to integrate a current associated with an input pulse of the input pulses over an input pulse width thereof, and where the multiplier is configured to provide an output pulse of the output pulses with an output pulse width proportional to the input pulse width.
