The invention relates to the technical field of
neuron circuits, and provides a configurable
neuron circuit and a control method, and the circuit comprises a
mode selection module which selects a corresponding target working mode according to a received
neuron configuration
signal; the calculation module is connected to the
mode selection module, and performs corresponding
membrane potential updating according to the target working mode selected by the
mode selection module and the received pulse information of the presynaptic neurons to obtain a
membrane potential updating result; the comparison module is connected to the calculation module and is used for comparing the
membrane potential updating result with a preset threshold value and determining whether the current neuron can generate a pulse or not according to a comparison result; and the pulse generation module is connected to the comparison module, and is used for generating a pulse
signal and an AER (Advanced
Encryption Register) coding group
package and outputting updated membrane potential information when the current neuron is determined to generate the pulse. According to the technical scheme, selection of two neuron models can be achieved, the circuit structure is simplified, and meanwhile more complex behavior
modes are achieved.
