ABSTRACT:
A cell for an electronic diffusion network that can be connected with neighboring cells for the transmission of information via linking elements (8n, 8rn, 8sn) having a nonlinear conduction characteristic. The cell also includes a connection node (1n) whose potential is representative of the excited state of the cell and to which is linked at least one of the linking elements (8n). The connection node (1n) is inserted into a series circuit which includes a current source (3n) and a current consuming element (5n) so as to fix the potential of the node (1n) to which the current source (3n) is connected by way of a switch element (2n) that has selective closure with the aid of activation pulses. A network equipped with such cells can assign both a temporal parameter and a quantitative parameter to the information diffused.
