Title Design and Investigation of Silicon Neuron
Summary This project aims to design a silicon neuron through an analog and mixed-signal design approach, and to investigate the effect of process variation on the performance of the silicon neuron. A silicon neuron is a hardware component that mimics the behavior of biological neurons and has various applications, particularly in the fields of artificial intelligence (AI), neuromorphic computing, and bio-inspired systems.
The specific objectives of this project are: (i) to design an ultra-low-power, sub-threshold silicon neuron; (ii) to simulate device variations in the sub-threshold regions resulting from process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variations; and (iii) to analyze the impact of these device variations on the performance of the silicon neuron. Additionally, the project will include a comprehensive literature review on silicon neuron hardware design and its applications in AI hardware modeling.
