Neuron MOSFET as a way to design a threshold gates with the threshold and input weights alterable in real time

MOS-transistors with floating gate (Neuron MOSFET or /spl nu/MOS) as a way to build threshold gates with parameters changeable in real time is discussed. Two types of /spl nu/MOS circuits, static and clocked, are under consideration. The latter is preferable for threshold gates with a large number of inputs. The possibility of minimizing the chip area and delay time is shown for the case of using /spl nu/MOS threshold gates to design VLSI neural networks with on-chip learning.
