Abstract
Edge devices—drones, robots, wearables—require low-latency perception, long battery life, and the ability to adapt locally. Neuromorphic computing, which uses event-driven spiking neural networks and co-located memory and processing, offers a promising path, but practical obstacles remain: compact modular hardware primitives, memristive device non-idealities, and poor energy proportionality when parts of a network are idle. This paper presents a practical design: a hybrid Memristor–CMOS neuromorphic tile that pairs CMOS Leaky–Integrate-and-Fire neurons with memristor crossbar synapses, a hardware-aware STDP learning engine, and an Adaptive Sleep Power Manager (ASPM) to power-gate idle compute while preserving non-volatile synaptic state. The architecture, learning and programming strategy, adaptive-sleep policy, and a reproducible prototyping and evaluation roadmap (simulation → FPGA/emulation → sensor demo) are described. The tile is intended as a modular primitive for building energy-proportional neuromorphic arrays suitable for real-world edge perception tasks.
