摘要:
Amplifier circuits having at least one neuron MOS transistor in which a coupling gate is connected to an amplifier output and at least one further coupling gate is connected with a respective amplifier input are provided. The amplifier circuit exhibits a linear transmission behavior even in large-signal operation and can be constructed using relatively few components. Furthermore, the gain is easy to set.

A defined zero point voltage (V.sub.0), dependent on a settable zero point voltage target value (V.sub.0,soll), is enabled in amplifier stages (1 . . . k) with neuron MOS transistors (T10,1 . . . T10,k). This is generally required because, for example, due to a process-caused charging of the floating gates of the neuron MOS transistors, and due to a capacitively coupled-in voltage from the channel region, an undefined zero point displacement of the transmission characteristic curve results. The devices can be used together with the amplifier stages, e.g. in video and audio technology, in sensor technology, in analog computers, in fuzzy circuits and in neural networks.
摘要:
A digital/analog converter has a neuron MOS transistor, a maintenance circuit which keeps the drain potential of the neuron MOS transistor constant, and a current source. A linear dynamic range in terms of large signal is possible, so that converters having a larger input word size than, for example, only two bits can be realized in a simple way with low dissipated power. Such converters are of significance particularly for ULSI circuits.

In the pointer circuit, only one static memory (1) is respectively individually allocated to each output ( . . . , A.sub.n-1, A.sub.n, A.sub.n+1, . . . ), of which each respectively has a pair of mutually complementary memory terminals (Q, Q). The two terminals are in two stored logical states ("1," "0") differing from one another. A memory terminal (Q) of each memory is connected with the output allocated to this memory. The memories are controlled by clock signals. This results in advantageous surface requirement and power loss low, as well as high speed.
摘要:
In a circuit arrangement wherein all logic elements can be represented in the form of a threshold value equation, for this purpose, transistors connected in parallel of a transistor unit are dimensioned in such a way that the cross-currents flowing through the transistors respectively represent a weighted summand of a first term of the threshold value equation. A second term of the threshold value equation is formed by a reference current representing the second term value. An evaluation unit compares an overall current, which results from the sum of cross-currents, with the reference current. The evaluation result is present at an output of the evaluation unit in the form of a stable output signal.
摘要:
The circuit arrangement has two electrical quantities in the form of a first quadrature-axis current component (I.sub.1) and of a second quadrature-axis current component (I.sub.2) that are compared to one another. The circuit arrangement has a first inverter unit (n.sub.1, p.sub.1) and a second inverter unit (n.sub.2, p.sub.2). Respectively one output (50, 52) of the two inverter units ((n.sub.1, p.sub.1, (n.sub.2, p.sub.2)) are coupled to an input of the respectively other inverter unit (52, 53). A reset unit (5) that initiates the comparison of the currents when activated is located between the two outputs of the two inverter units (n.sub.1, p.sub.2). When the reset unit (5) is deactivated, the output datum obtained in the evaluation remains stable.
摘要:
The circuit arrangement compares a quantity supplied by a first neuron MOS field effect transistor (M1) to a reference quantity that is made available by a reference source (R). A current mirror (SP) is provided therefor, this enabling a comparison of a second current (I.sub.2) supplied by a reference transistor (R) to a first current (I.sub.1) supplied by the first neuron MOS field effect transistor (M1). The evaluator circuit is activated or, respectively, decoupled by a first switch unit (S1) and a second switch unit (S2). What is thereby achieved is that no current flows in the evaluator circuit in the quiescent condition. The comparison result is applied to an inverter unit (IS). Since the inverter unit (IS) is decoupled from the evaluator circuit by the first switch unit (S1), an undefined level is never adjacent at the output (AIS) of the inverter unit (IS). This can be advantageously utilized in the further data processing in following stages.
摘要:
A threshold logic circuit with a low space requirement includes a first and at least one second circuit portion, each of which has an evaluator circuit and at least two branches to be evaluated. A partial sum signal formed in the first circuit portion is jointly used for the at least one second circuit portion and is not formed separately in each case. The main advantage is a low chip area consumption.
摘要:
The threshold value logic has a non-inverting circuit path (S) that and an inverting circuit path (S') are connected to at least one comparative weighting subcircuit (BC, BS). The non-inverting circuit path and the inverting circuit path preferably are of identical construction and each contain at least one neuron transistor (NT1, NT1'). The corresponding neuron transistor gates in the non-inverting circuit path and in the inverting circuit path are driven inversely with respect to one another.

An associative memory contains cells that are formed of a series circuit of an ordinary PMOS transistor with a PMOS transistor with a floating gate. The ordinary PMOS transistor receives of an input vector and the gate of the second PMOS transistor is connected to a learning input. For the associative access, a second vector can be applied to the drain terminal of the second PMOS transistor and, upon readout, the current flow through the respective series circuit is evaluated column-by-column by current evaluator circuits.
