Bio-inspired analog parallel array processor chip with programmable spatio-temporal dynamics. En IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS) (V - 613-V - 616), Phoenix-Scottsdale, USA: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.0-7803-7448-7https://hdl.handle.net/11441/89974A bio-inspired model for an analog parallel array processor (APAP), based on studies on the vertebrate retina, permits the realization of complex spatio-temporal dynamics in VLSI. This model mimics the way in which images are processed in the natural visual pathway which renders a feasible alternative for the implementation of early vision tasks in standard technologies. A prototype chip has been designed and fabricated in 0.5 /spl mu/m CMOS. Design challenges, trade-offs and the building blocks of such a high-complexity system (0.5/spl times/10/sup 6/ transistors, most of them operating in analog mode) are presented in this paper.application/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10.1109/ISCAS.2002.10107785597213
