Abstract

This paper studies a spiking neuron circuit with triangular base signal. The circuit can output rich spike-trains and the dynamics can be analyzed using a one-dimensional piecewise linear map. This system exhibits period doubling bifurcation, tangent bifurcation, super-stable periodic orbit bifurcation and so on. These phenomena can be characterized based on the inter-spike intervals. Using the maps, we can analyze the phenomena precisely. By presenting a simple test circuit, typical phenomena are confirmed experimentally.
