A Fully Tunable Ultra-Low Power Current-Mode Memory Cell in Standard CMOS Technology

Abstract This work introduces a fully tunable, ultra-low power unipolar memory cell inspired by the Schmitt-trigger comparator and designed in CMOS using only nine transistors. The proposed circuit operates entirely in the current domain and exploits a novel feedback configuratio...

A neuromodulable current-mode silicon neuron for robust and adaptive neuromorphic systems

Abstract Neuromorphic engineering makes use of mixed-signal analog and digital circuits to directly emulate the computational principles of biological brains. Such electronic systems offer a high degree of adaptability, robustness, and energy efficiency across a wide range of tas...
