Abstract
A charge-based winner-take-all (WTA) circuit is proposed. This WTA circuit is a min-net capable of selecting the minimum value among its input nodes and gives only one low voltage for the corresponding output node. The charge-based circuit uses a power supply of 3 V, with low power dissipation due to the lack of static DC current involved. The WTA circuit is used in associative neural networks.
