초록

In this paper, a new synapse cell with nonvolatile SONOS semiconductor memory device is proposed and it's fundamental function electronically implemented SONOS NVSM has shown characteristics that the memory value, synaptic weights, can be increased or decreased incrementally. A novel SONOS synapse is used to read out the stored analog value. For the purpose of synapse implementation using SONOS NVSM, this work has investigated multiplying characteristics including weight updating characteristics and neuron output characteristics. It is concluded that SONOS synapse cell has good agreement for use as a synapse in artificial neural networks.
