NEURON CIRCUIT WITH ONE BIRISTOR AND TWO TRANSISTORS, AND DEVICES INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17969006 titled 'NEURON CIRCUIT WITH ONE BIRISTOR AND TWO TRANSISTORS, AND DEVICES INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a neuron circuit that includes a biristor and a voltage divider. The biristor receives a constant input current from a synapse circuit and outputs a collector signal. The voltage divider, enabled by the collector signal, performs voltage division on an operating voltage and outputs an output voltage to another synapse circuit.
- The neuron circuit includes a biristor that receives a constant input current and outputs a collector signal.
- The biristor is connected to a ground through an emitter electrode.
- The collector signal enables a voltage divider in the circuit.
- The voltage divider performs voltage division on an operating voltage using resistances and outputs an output voltage.
- The output voltage corresponds to the result of the voltage division and is sent to another synapse circuit.

Original Abstract Submitted
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a neuron circuit may be provided. The neuron circuit includes a biristor that includes a collector electrode receiving a constant input current from a first synapse circuit and an emitter electrode connected with a ground and outputs a collector signal through the collector electrode, and a voltage divider that is enabled by the collector signal, performs voltage division on an operating voltage by using values of resistances included therein, and outputs an output voltage corresponding to a result of the voltage division to a second synapse circuit.
