  • Abstract
    The use of pulse-encoding in neural VLSI circuits is described, along with the motivation and rationale behind it. Options for synaptic multiplication and neural aggregation are discussed and an example presented. The author presents the options with respect to pulse stream arithmetic and coding at the microscopic neuron/synapse level, including those considered to be nonoptimal. Issues in pulse stream neural VLSI, and analog neural VLSI in general, are discussed
