Energy-efficient time-multiplexed neurosynaptic core for implementing neural networks

摘要

A multiplexed neural core circuit (100) comprises, for an integer multiplexing factor T that is greater than zero, T sets of electronic neurons, T sets of electronic axons, where each set of the T sets of electronic axons corresponds to one of the T sets of electronic neurons, and a synaptic crossbar or interconnection network (110b) comprising a plurality of electronic synapses that each interconnects a single electronic axon to a single electronic neuron, where the synaptic crossbar or interconnection network (110b) interconnects each set of the T sets of electronic axons to its corresponding set of electronic neurons.
