Oxide based Circuit Design
Oxide based Circuit Design
We design and propose an IGZO-based neuron circuit. To achieve accurate co-operation with IGZO-based synaptic transistors, the designed parameters of the neuron circuit are optimized through HSPICE. Additionally, we fabricate and measure the a-IGZO-based neuron circuit. Our neuron circuit can be directly integrated on top of other circuits or onto various substrates due to the low-temperature processability of a-IGZO TFT.
Oxide and CMOS Hybrid Circuit Design
Our laboratory proposes a hybrid (a-IGZO/CMOS) neuron circuit. By leveraging the extremely low leakage current and low mobility of a-IGZO TFT, the hybrid structure achieves significantly low power consumption compared to conventional CMOS-only neuron circuits. The operation and energy efficiency of the hybrid neuron circuit are validated through simulation.
