Abstract

Artificial neuromorphic circuit includes synapse and post-neuron circuits. Synapse circuit includes phase change element, first switch having at least three terminals, and second switch. Phase change element includes first and second terminals. First switch includes first, second and control terminals. Second switch includes first, second and control terminals. First switch is configured to receive first pulse signal. Second switch is coupled to phase change element and first switch, and is configured to receive second pulse signal. Post-neuron circuit includes capacitor and input terminal. Input terminal of post-neuron circuit charges capacitor in response to first pulse signal. Post-neuron circuit generates firing signal based on voltage level of capacitor and threshold voltage. Post-neuron circuit generates control signal based on firing signal. Control signal controls turning on of second switch. Second pulse signal flows through second switch to control state of phase change element to determine weight of artificial neuromorphic circuit.
