Abstract :
In this work we present the results of a study of neurons with synapses of the frequency-voltage type response, and the effects of the autosynapse that give us responses of long period. We also present the effects of synapse frequency/voltage-voltage/frequency in the phenomena of autosynapse in neuron cascades. We also studied the effects of the time constant involved in the synapses and their effects on the response of the neurons, in the autosynapse as well as in the neuron oscillatory cascades. All the studies in this first approximation were accomplished with electronic circuits that model the neurons and its synapses
