Abstract: A neural network circuit includes an error calculating circuit that generates an error voltage signal having a magnitude in accordance with a time difference between an output signal and a teaching signal corresponding to the output signal. A weight change pulse voltage signal is input to a synapse circuit of a neural network circuit element including a neuron circuit that output the weight change pulse voltage signal, and a switching pulse voltage signal is input to a synapse circuit of a neural network circuit element other than the neural network circuit element including the neuron circuit that output the switching pulse voltage signal. The neural network circuit element changes the amplitude of the weight change pulse voltage signal on the basis of the error voltage signal generated by the error calculating circuit.
