Abstract

This paper presents a non-linear analog synthesis path towards the modeling and full implementation of the Hodgkin-Huxley neuronal dynamics in silicon. The proposed circuits have been realized in weak-inversion CMOS technology and take advantage of both log-domain and translinear transistor-level techniques.
