Abstract
Systems and methods for a capacitor based resistive processing unit with symmetrical weight updating include a first capacitor that stores a charge corresponding to a weight value. A readout circuit reads the charge stored in the first capacitor to apply a weight to an input value corresponding to an input signal using the weight value to produce an output. An update circuit updates the weight value stored in the first capacitor, including a second capacitor in communication with the first capacitor to transfer an amount of charge to the first capacitor according to an error of the output by changing a voltage difference across the first capacitor by a voltage change corresponding to the amount of charge, the voltage difference corresponding to the charge stored in the first capacitor.
