Typically, the ADC data acquisition is based on FPGAs for edge data processing. In this study, we consider look-up-table-based neural-networks and address challenges of binary multi-layer neural networks' layout, footprint, performance and training. We show that these structures can be trained using a genetic algorithm and achieve the inference latency compatible with dead-time free processing online.
