Generating an exponential decay function with a time constant on the order of hundreds of milliseconds is a mainstay for neuromorphic circuits. Usually, either subthreshold circuits or RC-decays based on transconductance amplifiers are used. In the latter case, transconductances in the 10 pS range are needed. However, state-of-the-art low-transconductance amplifiers still require too much circuit area to be applicable in neuromorphic circuits where >100 of these time constant circuits may be required on a single chip. We present a silicon verified operational transconductance amplifier that achieves a gm of 5 pS in only 700 {mu}m2, a factor of 10-100 less area than current examples. This allows a high-density integration of time constant circuits in target appliations such as synaptic learning or as driving circuit for neuromorphic memristor arrays.
Conventional CMOS technology operated at cryogenic conditions has recently attracted interest for its uses in low-noise electronics. We present one of the first characterizations of 180 nm CMOS technology at a temperature of 100 mK, extracting I/V ch
We report on the experimental study made on a successive prototype of High-Voltage CMOS (HV-CMOS) ATLASPix2 sensor for the tracking detector application, developed with 180 nm feature size. These sensors are to qualify mainly the peripheral data proc
High-Voltage Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (HV-MAPS) based on the 180 nm HV-CMOS process have been proposed to realize thin, fast and highly integrated pixel sensors. The MuPix7 prototype, fabricated in the commercial AMS H18 process, features a fu
Neuronal firing activities have attracted a lot of attention since a large population of spatiotemporal patterns in the brain is the basis for adaptive behavior and can also reveal the signs for various neurological disorders including Alzheimers, sc
A switched-capacitor (SC) neuromorphic system for closed-loop neural coupling in 28 nm CMOS is presented, occupying 600 um by 600 um. It offers 128 input channels (i.e. presynaptic terminals), 8192 synapses and 64 output channels (i.e. neurons). Biol
