Abstract
Neuromorphic computational circuitry is disclosed that includes a cross point resistive network and line control circuitry. The cross point resistive network includes variable resistive units. One set of the variable resistive units is configured to generate a correction line current on a conductive line while other sets of the variable resistive units generate resultant line currents on other conductive lines. The line control circuitry is configured to receive the line currents from the conductive lines and generate digital vector values. Each of the digital vector values is provided in accordance with a difference between the current level of a corresponding resultant line current and a current level of the correction line current. In this manner, the digital vector values are corrected by the current level of the correction line current in order to reduce errors resulting from finite on to off conductance state ratios.
