technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a circuit structure, a driving method thereof, and a neural network. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of information technology, the improvement of operating speed and the reduction of energy consumption have become the bottleneck of the development of the traditional von Neumann computing architecture. Features such as adaptation are considered to be the breakthrough direction for high-performance computers. In the human brain, neurons and synapses are the most important and most numerous neural units. Therefore, building a brain-like computing system requires a large number of neuron-like and synapse-like electronic devices. In addition to the functions of simulating neurons and synapses, these electronic devices also need to have small area, low power consumption, and high speed. performance. [0003] At present, in the brain-inspired computing system, neuron-like functions n...
