Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) can drastically improve the energy efficiency of neuromorphic computing through network sparsity and event-driven execution. Thus, SNNs have the potential to support practical cognitive tasks on resource constrained platforms, such as edge devices. To realize this, SNN requires energy-efficient hardware which can run applications with a limited energy budget. However, the conventional CMOS implementations cannot achieve this goal due to the various architectural and technological challenges. In this work, we address these issues by developing an energy-efficient and accurate SNN hardware based on Computation In-Memory (CIM) architecture using Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) devices. The developed SNN architecture is based on unsupervised Spike Time Dependent Plasticity (STDP) learning algorithm with online learning capability. Simulation results show that the proposed architecture is energy-efficient with a consumption of ≈20 fJ per spike, while maintaining state-of-the-art inference accuracy of 95% when evaluated using the MNIST dataset. |
