Claim 0:
1. A neural network inference circuit for executing a neural network that comprises a plurality of nodes that use state data from previous executions of the neural network, the neural network inference circuit comprising:
a set of computation circuits that executes the nodes of the neural network; and
a set of non-transitory machine-readable memories that implements a set of one or more registers to store, while executing the neural network for a particular input, state data generated during at least two executions of the network for previous inputs, the state data for use by the set of computation circuits when executing a set of the nodes of the neural network for the particular input,
wherein the set of one or more registers comprises a plurality of periodic registers, each periodic register comprising a different set of memory locations of the set of memories.
