The topic of this lecture is how we can model biological phototransduction in biological photoreceptors using silicon microcircuits, and how this modeling leads to new types of practical vision sensor devices. It includes an introduction for neuroscientists to how sil…</description>

        <description>Microcontroller resources

The class uses an AVR32 microcontroller from Atmel, specifically, the UC3 type controller AT32UC3B1256, mounted on a small development board called copper, developed by StackFoundry.

Development tools are available from &lt;https://neuromorphs.net/nm/wiki/2010/usb10/AtmelAVR32&gt; .

The copper board assembly is based on Daniel Fasnacht&#039;s SMD course in Telluride</description>

We use www.tanner.com/eda tools for our chip design and have learned a number of useful tricks. 
These are for version 12x.

	*  When doing extract of a large array, populate just the rim with circuits (e.g. pixels), ensuring full generality of course, and simplify the wiring of the dummy connection cells as much as possible, e.g. just metal wires and no diffusion or wells.</description>
