摘要: An analogue memory cell based on a local selfrefreshing technique is presented. The circuit suitable for long-term storage of synaptic weights in VLSI implementations neural networks. refreshes the voltage capacitor multilevel fashion by automatic comparison and confirmation with range discrete levels locally reproduced from an external reference signal.
