Abstract
Block transfer of neuron output values through data memory for neurosynaptic processors is provided, which in some embodiments includes time-multiplexing. A neurosynaptic core is adapted to apply a plurality of synaptic weights to a plurality of input activations to produce a plurality of output activations. Synaptic weights for one of a plurality of logical cores are read. The neurosynaptic core is configured to implement the one of the plurality of logical cores using the synaptic weights. At least one data block is provided as contiguous input activations to the neurosynaptic core. The input activations are processed by the neurosynaptic core to determine at least one contiguous block of output activations.
