Abstract: An example device may include multiply-accumulate circuitry and voltage-tracking modulator circuitry. The multiply-accumulate circuitry may be to increase and decrease an accumulation voltage held by an accumulator based on a number of input signals. The voltage-tracking modulator circuitry may be to generate an output signal based on the accumulation voltage, wherein the output signal is a continuous-time binary signal that tracks changes of the accumulation voltage by varying pulse widths of the output signal. The example device may be used as a neuron in a neural network.

Abstract: In the examples provided herein, an electrostatic discharge (ESD) recording circuit has a first memristive element coupled to a pin of an integrated circuit. The first memristive element switches from a first resistance to a second resistance when an ESD event occurs at the pin, and the first resistance is less than the second resistance. The ESD recording circuit also has shunting circuitry to shunt energy from an additional ESD event away from the first memristive element.

Abstract: A method of operating a plurality of memristive cells coupled as a memristor array includes initializing a first select line, and, in parallel for a number of memristor cells in the first select line, determining whether a level of conductance of the memristor cells in the first select line are within a tolerance of a reference conductance, and, in response to a determination that the level of conductance is not within the tolerance of the reference conductance, adjusting the level of conductance for the memristor cells in the first select line.

Abstract: A device for regulating memristor switching pulses is described. The device includes a voltage source to supply a voltage to a memristor. The device also includes a voltage detector to detect a memristor voltage. The memristor voltage is based on an initial resistance state of the memristor and the voltage supplied by the voltage source. The device also includes a comparator to compare the memristor voltage with a target voltage value for the memristor. The device also includes a feedback loop to indicate to a control switch when the memristor voltage is at least equal to the target voltage value. The device also includes a control switch to cut off the memristor from the voltage source when the memristor voltage is at least equal to the target voltage value.

Abstract: An example electronic device includes a crossbar array, row driver circuitry, and column output circuits for each of the column lines of the crossbar array. The crossbar array may include row lines, column lines, and memristors that each are connected between one of the row lines and one of the column lines. The row driver circuitry may be to apply a plurality of analog voltages to a first node during a plurality of time periods, respectively, and, for each of the row lines, selectively connect the row line to the first node during one of the plurality of time periods based on a digital input vector. The column output circuits may each include: an integration capacitor, a switch that is controlled by an integration control signal, and current mirroring circuitry. The current mirroring circuitry may be to, when the switch is closed, flow an integration current to or from an electrode of the integration capacitor whose magnitude mirrors a current flowing on the corresponding column line. The integration control signal may be to close the switch for a specified amount of time during each of the plurality of time periods.

Abstract: In the examples provided herein, an apparatus has a memristive element coupled to a pin of an integrated circuit, wherein the memristive element switches from a first resistance within a first range of resistance values to a second resistance within a second range of resistance values in response to an electrostatic discharge (ESD) event at the pin. The apparatus also has read circuitry coupled to the memristive element to determine whether a resistance of the memristive element is in the first or second range of resistance values, wherein the read circuitry includes a first transistor. Further, the coupling between the read circuitry and the memristive element does not include a direct path for current from the ESD event to a gate terminal of the first transistor.
