Capacitive Storage
In contrast to digital DRAM there is no means for an ’analog refresh’. Thus, this is only useful for short term storage.

Weekly Questions
- 1. In the light of the introductory lecture about analog
CMOS: why is EEPROM storage potentially difficult in more advanced standard technologies, like 90nm, 65nm ... CMOS?
- 2. By what mechanism do you imagine a synaptic weight
could be changed in a biological synapse? One would be that the amount of neurotransmitter release in the synaptic cleft changes. Can you think of others?
