An analog neuromorphic circuit is disclosed having resistive memories that provide a resistance to an input voltage signal as the input voltage signal propagates through the resistive memories generating a first output voltage signal and to provide a resistance to a first error signal that propagates through the resistive memories generating a second output voltage signal. A comparator generates the first error signal that is representative of a difference between the first output voltage signal and the desired output signal and generates the first error signal so that the first error signal propagates back through the plurality of resistive memories. A resistance adjuster adjusts a resistance value associated with each resistive memory based on the first error signal and the second output voltage signal to decrease the difference between the first output voltage signal and the desired output signal.

On-chip training of memristor crossbar neuromorphic processing systems

An analog neuromorphic circuit is disclosed, having input voltages applied to a plurality of inputs of the analog neuromorphic circuit. The circuit also includes a plurality of resistive memories that provide a resistance to each input voltage applied to each of the inputs so that each input voltage is multiplied in parallel by the corresponding resistance of each corresponding resistive memory to generate a corresponding current for each input voltage and each corresponding current is added in parallel. The circuit also includes at least one output signal that is generated from each of the input voltages multiplied in parallel with each of the corresponding currents for each of the input voltages added in parallel. The multiplying of each input voltage with each corresponding resistance is executed simultaneously with adding each corresponding current for each input voltage.
