Abstract :
In this article, an ultra high-speed arbitration process for transient pixelspsila data is presented. Enabling a high-precision timestamping, this system demonstrates its uniqueness for handling high peak rates and preserving the main advantage of the neuromorphic electronic systems, that is high and accurate temporal resolution. Based on synchronous arbitration concept, the timestamping has accuracy better than 1 mus. The performance analysis in several tests and concept advantages over asynchronous arbitration are also discussed.
