Abstract :
In this paper, we investigate the use of analog neural networks to implement small logic function like Look Up Tables (LUT) in FPGA circuits (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). For that purpose, we present an architecture using tunable resistors or, alternatively, an original CNT-FET based synaptic cell. Finally, simulations demonstrate that learning using the Boltzmann machine algorithm can correct a defective circuit.
