Patent number: 12609159Abstract: A neuromorphic circuit suitable for implementing a neural network includes word lines, pairs of complementary bit-lines, source lines, a set of elementary cells, and an electronic circuit implementing a neurone having an output. The electronic circuit includes a set of logic components, a counting unit, and a comparison unit having a comparator and a comparison voltage generator, the comparator being configured to compare the output of the counting unit with the comparison voltage generated by the comparison voltage generator in order to output a signal dependent on the comparison and corresponding to the output of the electronic circuit.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2022Date of Patent: April 21, 2026Assignees: Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives, Centre national de la recherche scientifique, Université d'Aix-MarseilleInventors: Mona Ezzadeen, Jean-Philippe Noel, Bastien Giraud, Jean-Michel Portal, François Andrieu

Patent number: 12603136Abstract: A data storage circuit of NOR type includes a three-dimensional memory structure, produced on a first semiconductor substrate, and comprising a plurality of memory planes, each plane forming a two-dimensional array of memory cells. Each memory cell has a selection node, a first input/output node and a second input/output node. The three-dimensional memory structure has an upper surface comprising a plurality of connectors distributed over the surface; each connector is connected to at least one among the first or second input/output nodes of a given column; a control circuit produced on a second semiconductor substrate; an interconnection structure comprising: a plurality of bonding pads placed between the control circuit and the upper surface; the plurality of bonding pads forms a periodic repetition of a unit pattern in a plane parallel to the upper surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2023Date of Patent: April 14, 2026Assignees: COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE ET AUX ENERGIES ALTERNATIVES, CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE, UNIVERSITE D'AIX-MARSEILLEInventors: Mona Ezzadeen, François Andrieu, Jean-Michel Portal

Patent number: 12525289Abstract: An electronic circuit is provided that performs binary computation operations and includes word, bit and source lines, and memory cells organized in rows and columns. Each cell includes one pair of memristors and one pair of switches, each memristor being connected to a switch and linked to the same source line during each computation operation, each pair of memristors storing a binary value; the switches being linked to a word line and to a pair of complementary bit lines. The circuit includes a reading module that includes a logic unit for each column, each including an input terminal connected to a source line to receive a column value, the logic unit toggling between values, depending on a comparison of the column value with a toggle threshold value; and a modification unit for modifying a difference between the column and threshold values.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2023Date of Patent: January 13, 2026Assignees: Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives, Centre national de la recherche scientifique, Université d'Aix-MarseilleInventors: Mona Ezzadeen, Bastien Giraud, Jean-Philippe Noel, Jean-Michel Portal
