Realization and extensions of user programmable, single - level, double - threshold generalized prceptron

Abstract

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 subblock 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 pectreS simulator and AMS 0.8mm 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.
