AB  - This paper presents a numerical analysis of the role of asymptotic dynamics in 
      the design of hardware-based implementations of the generalised 
      integrate-and-fire (gIF) neuron models. These proposed implementations are based 
      on extensions of the discrete-time spiking neuron model, which was introduced by 
      Soula et al., and have been implemented on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) 
      devices using fixed-point arithmetic. Mathematical studies conducted by Cessac 
      have evidenced the existence of three main regimes (neural death, periodic and 
      chaotic regimes) in the activity of such neuron models. These activity regimes 
      are characterised in hardware by considering a precision analysis in the design 
      of an architecture for an FPGA-based implementation. The proposed approach, 
      although based on gIF neuron models and FPGA hardware, can be extended to more 
      complex neuron models as well as to different in silico implementations.
