Abstract
We propose Cell Array(CA) to develop a PCA(Processing Cell Array) architecture as advocated in Reference [1] to improve the free degree of the composition of the instruction control unit and the memory. Also, we propose a connection method among cells to establish the architecture of the entire processor element. Our goal is to check the architecture, control sequence and it's performance. We took the back-propagation learning law as an example, because it is the typical model of the neural network.
