Neuromorphic computers could overcome efficiency bottlenecks inherent to conventional computing through parallel programming and readout of artificial neural network weights in a crossbar memory array. However, selective linear weight updates <10-nanoampere read currents are required for learning that surpasses efficiency. We introduce an ionic floating-gate array based on polymer redox transistor connected conductive-bridge (CBM). Selective is executed by overcoming the bridging threshold...
