System and method using neural networks for analog-to-information processors

This system uses artificial intelligence, specifically neural networks, to automatically design electronic circuits. It creates a mathematical blueprint of a circuit, maps its components to "neurons," and then tests these on a special hardware platform to find the best arrangement. The claims narrow this down to designing analog-to-digital interfaces for mixed-signal circuits, potentially using a resistive random-access memory (RRAM) array as the hardware platform.
