  "abstract": "<p>Flexible electronics is becoming more prevalent in a wide range of applications, particularly wearable biomedical<br>\ndevices. These devices would greatly benefit from in-built intelligence allowing them to process data and identify features,<br>\nin order to reduce transmission and power requirements. In this work, we present a novel time-domain multiply-accumulate<br>\n(MAC) engine architecture that can act as the basic block of an artificial analogue neural network. The design does not require<br>\nanalogue voltage buffers, making them easier to realise in flexible technologies and consumes less power than conventional methods. The research could be used in future to construct a low power classifier for a low cost, flexible wearable biomedical sensor.</p>",
