Abstract
We fabricated neural-based superconducting integrated-circuits by using Nb/AlOx/Nb Josephson junctions, and demonstrated the operation of 2-bit neural-based A/D converter which is one of the circuits solving optimization problems. We used fluxon pulses as neural impulses and a Josephson junction as a threshold element. The conductance values of resistors by which Josephson transmission lines are connected represent fixed synaptic strengths. The preliminary experimental result suggests that variable critical currents of dc-SQUID may provide synapses with variable strength.
