摘要
Several research groups are implementing analog integrated circuit models of biological auditory processing. The outputs of these circuit models have taken several forms, including video format for monitor display [1], [2], simple scanned output for oscilloscope display [3], and parallel analog outputs suitable for data-acquisition systems [4]. In this paper, we describe an alternative output method for silicon auditory models, suitable for direct interface to digital computers. As a prototype of this method, we describe an integrated circuit model of temporal adaptation in the auditory nerve, that functions as a peripheral to a workstation running the Unix operating systems. We show data from a working hybrid system that includes the auditory model, a digital interface, and asynchronous software; this system produces a real-time X-window display of the response of the auditory nerve model.
