Low Voltage-Power-Area FGMOS Neural Classifier Circuit for VLSI Analog BIST

This paper presents a novel Neural Classifier using FGMOS (Floating Gate MOSFET) . Basic reason for using FGMOS in Neural Classifier instead of classical MOSFET based Neural Classifier is to get significant reduction in area and power. Additional advantage of FGMOS based Neural Classifier is the simple circuitry as compared to classical MOSFET based Neural Classifier. 51.037% reduction in area is achieved in FGMOS based Neural Classifier (in .12μm technology). Along with this Neural classifier, 100 synapse and 10 Neurons reconfigurable network also implemented. KeywordsFGMOS, Synapse, Neuron, Reconfigurable Network, Floating Gate.
