Abstract
In a neural network circuit element, a neuron circuit includes a waveform generating circuit for generating an analog pulse voltage, and a switching pulse voltage which is input as a first input signal to another neural network circuit element; a synapse circuit is configured such that the analog pulse voltage generated in the neuron circuit of the neural network circuit element including the synapse circuit is input to a third terminal of a variable resistance element of the synapse circuit, for a permissible input period, in the first input signal from another neural network circuit element; and the synapse circuit is configured such that the resistance value of the variable resistance element is changed in response to an electric potential difference between a first terminal and the third terminal, which occurs depending on a magnitude of the analog pulse voltage for the permissible input period.
