Abstract :
In this paper novel AB class neuron structures that set foundations for low power VLSI neural networks and other applications are proposed. The analog AB class circuits for activation function and programmable weight synaptic connections are presented and discussed. A qualitative comparison is made between standard and proposed circuits
