Abstract
This paper describes a single transistor floating-gate synapse device that can be used to store a weight in a nonvolatile manner, compute a biological EPSP, and demonstrate biological learning rules such as Long-Term Potentiation, LTD, and spike-time dependent plasticity. We also describe a highly scalable architecture of a matrix of synapses to implement the described learning rules. Parameters for weight update in the 0.35 um process have been extracted and can be used to predict the change in weight based on time difference between pre- and post-synaptic spike times.Keywords
