Abstract
Provided are a weighting device that may be driven at a low voltage and is capable of embodying multi-level weights, a neural network, and a method of operating the weighting device. The weighting device includes a switching layer that may switch between a high resistance state and a low resistance state based on a voltage applied thereto and a charge trap material layer that traps or discharges charges according to a resistance state of the switching layer. The weighting device may be used for controlling a weight in a neural network.
