The firing pattern of basic cell classes like regular spiking (RS),chattering (CH), intrinsic bursting (IB) and fast spiking(FS) are obtained with a simple adjustment of onlyone biasing voltage makes circuit suitable for applications in reconfigurable neuromorphic devices thatimplement biologically resemble circuit of cortex. This paper discusses spice simulation of the variousspiking pattern ability with required and firing frequency of a given cell type. The circuit operation isverified for both conditions-constant input and pulsating input. %K Neocortex %K Dendritic morphology %K Oscillatory Neuron %K Cortical neuron %U http://airccse.org/journal/ijsc/papers/2411ijsc05.pdf
