Transient Response and Firing Behaviors of Memristive Neuron Circuit.

ABSTRACT: The signal transmission mechanism of the Resistor-Capacitor (RC) circuit is similar to the intracellular and extracellular signal propagating mechanism of the neuron. Thus, the RC circuit can be utilized as the circuit model of the neuron cell membrane. However, resistors are electronic components with the fixed-resistance and have no memory properties. A memristor is a promising neuro-morphological electronic device with nonvolatile, switching, and nonlinear characteristics. First of all, we consider replacing the resistor in the RC neuron circuit with a memristor, which is named the Memristor-Capacitor (MC) circuit, then the MC neuron model is constructed. We compare the charging and discharging processes between the RC and MC neuron circuits. Secondly, two models are compared under the
