contents In this paper we analyze a neuromorphic controller, inspired by the leaky integrate-and-fire neuronal model, in closed-loop with a single-input single-output linear time-invariant system. The controller consists of two neuron-like variables and generates a spiking control input whenever one of these variables reaches a threshold. The control input is different from zero only at the spiking instants and, hence, between two spiking times the system evolves in open-loop. Exploiting the hybrid nature of the integrate-and-fire neuronal dynamics, we present a hybrid modeling framework to design and analyze this new controller. In the particular case of single-state linear time-invariant plants, we prove a practical stability property for the closed-loop system, we ensure the existence of a strictly positive dwell-time between spikes, and we relate these properties to the parameters in the neurons. The results are illustrated in a numerical example.
