Journey with creating hardware (silicon) neural networks.

• Using integer to define I/O.
• Created:
  • neuron
  • ReLU

• Used:
  • std_logic_vector
  • std_logic_signed
• Created:
  • neuron
  • ReLU.

• Using component to bind neuron and relu I/O.
• Created:
  • perceptron

• Introduced clk
• Created clk process

Experimented with using Fixed Point Arithmetic to represent floating point numbers.

Made changes only to the neuron.

Simulation looks good!

A functioning perceptron which uses fixed point arithmetic for floating point numbers.

Examples of how to use the fixed point arithmetic library in VHDL.
