Emulating various facets of computing principles of the brain can potentially lead to the development of neuro-computers that are able to exhibit brain-like cognitive capabilities. In this letter, we propose a magnetoelectronic neuron that utilizes noise as a computing resource and is able to encode information over time through the independent control of external voltage signals. We extensively characterize the device operation using simulations and demonstrate its suitability for neuromorphic computing platforms performing temporal information encoding.
