This invention has 3 parts. Part 1 proposes a Cellular Neural Network or CNN universal chip (100) architecture with analog stored programs (104, 112) and time-multiplex templates. Hundreds of dedicated CNN chips may be replaced with a single programmable, real-time VLSI chip (100). Each chip (100) includes a global analogic programming unit or GAPU (102). Each chip (100) also includes a grid of enhanced cells (110), with each such cell having local units for: memory (112, 114), logic (116), communications and control (118) and output (120) functions. Part 2 proposes a unique wireless non-optical method for outputting information from the CNN analog array via electromagnetic waves generated by non-linear oscillations and chaos. Part 3 combines a set of analog, or digitally emulated, CNN universal chips (100) to design a CNN array supercomputer capable of solving non-linear partial differential equations (e.g., wave type, Navier-Stokes-type, etc.). |
