Figure Lengend Snippet: The response of the Merkel spiking model. In each part, the first panel (green) shows the response of the differential Equations (1) and (2) solved by Runge–Kutta method, RK4, the second panel (pink) is the response of the discrete Equations (7) and (8), the third panel (red) illustrates the VIVADO simulation of the digital circuit and the last panel is the response of the digital mechanoreceptor (blue color) executed on the ZedBoard. The last panel also displays the input (yellow color) which its amplitude is for (A) 2.4, (B) 2.6, (C) 2.8, (D) 3 mA. The Time division was set on 25 ms.
