Abstract:
PCT No. PCT/DE96/02449 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 17, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 17, 1998 PCT Filed Dec. 18, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/27632 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 31, 1997A semiconductor neuron has input electrodes are coupled capacitively to a floating gate (FG) whose potential controls the current of a MOS field effect transistor (NT). A respective neuron input (E1 . . . E4) can be connected to partial electrodes (1 . . . 7) of a respective input electrode in such a way that the total surface area of the partial electrodes connected to the respective neuron input corresponds to a respective weight of the neuron input. This results in high processing speed of a hardware neuron with the flexibility of a software neuron.
