The paper introduces a fully analog readout architecture for vector-matrix multiplication in spiking neural networks that uses voltage-to-time conversion instead of conventional current-mode circuits. By sensing the column voltage directly, the design eliminates the need for current summing and scaling circuitry, thereby reducing area and power consumption. Post-layout simulations of a 10×1 SNN in 130 nm CMOS and tests on a 64×10 digit‑classification network demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed approach.
