Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to producing spike-timing dependent plasticity using electronic neurons interconnected in a crossbar array network. The crossbar array network comprises a plurality of crossbar arrays. Each crossbar array comprises a plurality of axons and a plurality of dendrites such that the axons and dendrites are transverse to one another, and multiple synapse devices, wherein each synapse device is at a cross-point junction of the crossbar array coupled between a dendrite and an axon. The crossbar arrays are spatially in a staggered pattern providing a staggered crossbar layout of the synapse devices.
