The possibility of implementing a neural network in hardware to make a
n on-line particle identification of pions and kaons based on scintill
ation signals is demonstrated. The main aim of the investigation is to
show the simplicity of implementing commercial neural network integra
ted circuits in high energy physics experiments.
