Electric Darker Neural Brain Icon

Purpose-Built for Hardware Neuromorphic Devices

This system is specifically designed for the characterization, programming, and driving of hardware neuromorphic devices, including memristors, memristor arrays, and in-sensor computing devices. Unlike many general-purpose measurement instruments, its software architecture, control algorithms, and test procedures are tailored to the specific requirements of neuromorphic and sensor-computing hardware. The platform is also supported by a dedicated datasheet and communication documentation, enabling users to understand the system interface and control structure in detail.

spec range

Flexible, Open, and Researcher-Controlled

A key advantage of the system is its flexibility and openness. In addition to the provided graphical software, the hardware can be controlled using user-written software, allowing researchers and developers to implement custom test routines, control algorithms, read/write schemes, and experimental workflows suited to their own requirements. The system supports different connection and stimulation configurations, including series, parallel, and other custom interconnection schemes. Combined with real-time visualization, data recording, and programmable control, these capabilities make the platform particularly suitable for studying electrical behavior, programming characteristics, switching dynamics, sensing-response behavior, and the overall performance of memristors, hardware neuromorphic devices, and in-sensor computing systems.
