Abstract

Devices and methods related to spiking neural units in memory. One device includes a memory array and a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) coupled to the memory array and located under the memory array, wherein the CMOS includes a spiking neural unit comprising logic configured to receive an input to increase a weight stored in a memory cell of the memory array, collect the weight from the memory cell of the memory array, accumulate the weight with an increase based on the input, compare the accumulated weight to a threshold weight, and provide an output in response to the accumulated weight being greater than the threshold weight.
