class brainpy.state.NESTSynapse(in_size, name=None)#

Abstract base class for all NEST-compatible synapse models.

Covers static synapses (static_synapse, static_synapse_hom_w, bernoulli_synapse, cont_delay_synapse), gap junctions (gap_junction, diffusion_connection), rate connections (rate_connection_instantaneous, rate_connection_delayed), and other non-plastic connection models (sic_connection).

Plasticity synapse models (STP, STDP, voltage-based learning rules) inherit from the more specific NESTPlasticity subclass.
