Abstract :
A major problem with current Cellular Neural Networks is that the size of the network is partially limited by the number of input/output pins. This paper addresses this issue by combining a thermal pixel with the output of each cell. The output of all of the cells can then be seen in parallel with the aid of a thermal camera or other device located off-chip. The layout for the cell is given and discussed. The chip was fabricated through the MOSIS service
