Abstract :
A simple and compact memristor-based bridge circuit which is able to perform signed synaptic weighting in neuron cells is proposed. The proposed memristor-based synapse is composed of four memristors which makes a bridge type configuration. By programming different values on each memristor of the memristor bridge circuit, weighting values can be set on the memristor bridge synapses. Various simulation results are included.
