    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for activity based plasticity in a spiking neuron network adapted to process sensory input. In one approach, the plasticity mechanism of a connection may comprise a causal potentiation portion and an anti-causal portion. The anti-causal portion, corresponding to the input into a neuron occurring after the neuron response, may be configured based on the prior activity of the neuron. When the neuron is in low activity state, the connection, when active, may be potentiated by a base amount. When the neuron activity increases due to another input, the efficacy of the connection, if active, may be reduced proportionally to the neuron activity. Such functionality may enable the network to maintain strong, albeit inactive, connections available for use for extended intervals.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for event based communication in a spiking neuron network. The network may comprise units communicating by spikes via synapses. The spikes may communicate a payload data. The data may comprise one or more bits. The payload may be stored in a buffer of a pre-synaptic unit and be configured to accessed by the post-synaptic unit. Spikes of different payload may cause different actions by the recipient unit. Sensory input spikes may cause postsynaptic response and trigger connection efficacy update. Teaching input spikes trigger the efficacy update without causing the post-synaptic response.

    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for communicating coherency information between initiator and target agents on semiconductor chips. Sufficient information communication to support full coherency is performed through a socket interface using only three channels. Transaction requests are issued on one channel with responses given on a second. Intervention requests are issued on the same channel as transaction responses. Intervention responses are given on a third channel. Such an approach drastically reduces the complexity of cache coherent socket interfaces compared to conventional approaches. The net effect is faster logic, smaller silicon area, improved architecture performance, and a reduced probability of bugs by the designers of coherent initiators and targets.

    Abstract: An RF device includes a substrate and a series circuit of a tunable RF component and a DC blocking capacitor. The series circuit is arranged on the substrate and couples an RF signal terminal to a fixed voltage terminal that is electrically isolated from the RF signal terminal. The tunable RF component is coupled to the RF signal terminal, the DC blocking capacitor is coupled to the fixed voltage terminal and a driver terminal is coupled to the tunable RF component.
