REALIZATION AND EXTENSIONS OF USER PROGRAMMABLE, SINGLE-LEVEL, DOUBLE-THRESHOLD GENERALIZED PERCEPTRON

The implementation of a perceptron that can classify data separable by two parallel hyper-planes or equivalently of a Single-Level TL-XOR gate is proposed using 10 MOS transistors and 2 capacitors. The functional sub-block decomposition of the Perceptron with two separating hyper-planes, its CMOS implementation explaining the operation of each sub-block and simulation results, obtained using the SpectreS simulator and AMS 0.8Ltm CMOS double-poly double-metal technology parameters are presented. A brief outline of the two level CTL realization and its comparison with the new implementation are given as far as their transistor count, programmability and total delay are concerned.
