Bifurcation analysis in a silicon neuron
In this paper, we describe an analysis of the nonlinear dynamical phenomenon associated with a silicon neuron. Our silicon neuron in Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) integrates Hodgkin–Huxley (HH) model for...

A two-variable silicon neuron circuit based on the Izhikevich model
The silicon neuron is an analog electronic circuit that reproduces the dynamics of a neuron. It is a useful element for artificial neural networks that work in real time. Silicon neuron circuits have to be sim...

MOSFET implementation of class I* neurons coupled by gap junctions
We propose a two-dimensional class I* neuron circuit coupled by gap junctions (GJs) consisting of enhancement-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-trangistors (MOSFETs). It is shown that some neurons th...
