Memristor emulator with off-the-shelf solid state components for memristor application circuits

Abstract

A memristor emulator circuit which is designed with off-the-shelf solid state components is presented. As the memristors are not commercially available so far, some circuit replacements which behave like memristors are needed to develop application circuits. In this paper, the variable resistance of a memristor is built utilizing the input resistance of the closed loop circuit of an OP amp. The memristor emulator circuit has been implemented on breadboard with off-the-shelf solid state components. The experimental results of the proposed memristor emulator circuit show a memristor behavior that can be utilized as an alternative of hp TiO2 memristor model.
