Since you're flexible on the silicon side, perhaps consider designing things so that the ternary weights are loaded from an external configuration rom into a shift register chain, instead of fixed. This would allow updating the weights without having to go through the whole production chain again.

This seems super cool. I'll have my cofounder look into it :)
