Wafer-scale integration of analog neural networks
@article{Schemmel2008WaferscaleIO, title={Wafer-scale integration of analog neural networks}, author={J. Schemmel and J. Fieres and K. Meier}, journal={2008 IEEE International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence)}, year={2008}, pages={431-438} }
This paper introduces a novel design of an artificial neural network tailored for wafer-scale integration. The presented VLSI implementation includes continuous-time analog neurons with up to 16 k inputs. A novel interconnection and routing scheme allows the mapping of a multitude of network models derived from biology on the VLSI neural network while maintaining a high resource usage. A single 20 cm wafer contains about 60 million synapses. The implemented neurons are highly accelerated… CONTINUE READING
