Abstract
In this paper, we expose architectural solutions for a neuromorphic signal processing chip for the Internet of Things. We use Spiking Neural Networks with set topology and weight to implement arithmetic and signal processing functions using the spikes to carry information. The obtained framework of operators is capable of flexible Fixed Point operations. We show in this paper that our Globally Asynchronous Locally Synchronous architecture using Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling is very well suited to lower the overall energy of the proposed architecture and to bring more flexibility.
