Abstract
There are many factors to consider when designing a memristor emulator, such as circuit structure complexity, floating or grounding, frequency range, consumption, etc. It is difficult to optimize the overall performance although emulators reported have already improved in some aspects. Therefore, a CMOS-based memristor emulator circuit is proposed. The whole circuit structure of the new one is simple. Simulations of it conducted using 130nm CMOS process parameters in the Cadence Analog Environment show distinct hysteresis loop characteristics. The experimental results of the emulator circuit built on the breadboard using commercial components keep the pitched hysteresis characteristics. The proposed one can be connected to both floating and grounding structures, and the operating frequency of the floating connection can reach 20MHz. The simulation results of the combination logic circuits and the sequential ones designed based on the new memristor emulator also demonstrate its functionality.
期刊介绍:
he Journal of Computational Electronics brings together research on all aspects of modeling and simulation of modern electronics. This includes optical, electronic, mechanical, and quantum mechanical aspects, as well as research on the underlying mathematical algorithms and computational details. The related areas of energy conversion/storage and of molecular and biological systems, in which the thrust is on the charge transport, electronic, mechanical, and optical properties, are also covered.
In particular, we encourage manuscripts dealing with device simulation; with optical and optoelectronic systems and photonics; with energy storage (e.g. batteries, fuel cells) and harvesting (e.g. photovoltaic), with simulation of circuits, VLSI layout, logic and architecture (based on, for example, CMOS devices, quantum-cellular automata, QBITs, or single-electron transistors); with electromagnetic simulations (such as microwave electronics and components); or with molecular and biological systems. However, in all these cases, the submitted manuscripts should explicitly address the electronic properties of the relevant systems, materials, or devices and/or present novel contributions to the physical models, computational strategies, or numerical algorithms.
