Abstract :
This paper describes a compact implementation of a three synapse Kohonen neuron with learning capability, using a standard CMOS technology. The synaptic weights are stored on a capacitor as a discrete voltage, input signals are frequency coded pulse streams and special pulse stream arithmetic is used to perform synaptic multiplication and learning.
