Abstract :
A memristor based write circuit is presented that can update multiple memristors using a neuron spike generated by the Izhikevich model. A memristor read circuit is also presented that is capable of quantizing the resistance into 5 discrete values that could be digitally decoded. Together, these circuits provide the basic block for a memristor based neuromorphic architecture. The memristors were modeled using published device characterization data.
