  • Publication number: 20230048278
    Abstract: A neuromorphic hardware apparatus based on a resistive memory array includes a resistive memory array in which a plurality of synaptic resistor elements are arranged. Each synaptic resistor element is changed in its resistance value depending on a voltage pulse applied thereto and stores the resistance value for a predetermined time. The apparatus also includes a neuron circuit configured to receive an output signal from the resistive memory array and to output a voltage signal to another resistive memory array. The neuron circuit includes a temperature compensation unit, which compensates for an output voltage of the resistive memory array on the basis of an operating temperature of the resistive memory array. Even when a resistive memory array outputs an abnormal output depending on an operating temperature, by compensating a neuron circuit for an input value, it is possible to prevent an operation error from occurring.
