Two methods for pipelining analog or hybrid neural networks with analog outputs are presented. These methods provide concurrent operation of various stages on different sets of the network input stream. A new analog neuron with an embedded latch for implementation of one of the architectures is also presented. These methods are particularly attractive for time-multiplexed implementation of multi-layer neural networks. It is shown that significant speed improvement can be achieved by these methods.>
