Research Abstract |
Silicon neuron and synapse circuits emulate the electrophysiological behavior of the neuron and the synapse. In addition to these circuits, Silicon CPG, their mutual coupling, were designed utilizing mathematical techniques, which allowed us to implement the complex dynamics in neurons by far simpler circuitry than conventional circuits. These circuits were implemented in the integrated circuits and evaluated. In addition, a control interface circuit for connection with an electrostatic MEMS actuator was designed and the technique to obtain feedback information from the actuator was developed.
