MEMRISTOR OSCILLATORS

TLDR

The memristor, first reported in 2008, has attracted global interest for its potential in high‑density nonvolatile memory and neural synapses, and is defined as a passive nonlinear two‑terminal element linking charge and flux. The study aims to derive nonlinear oscillators by substituting Chua's diodes with memristors in Chua's oscillator circuits. They achieve this by replacing Chua's diodes with memristors in the oscillator configuration.

Abstract

The memristor has attracted phenomenal worldwide attention since its debut on 1 May 2008 issue of Nature in view of its many potential applications, e.g. super-dense nonvolatile computer memory and neural synapses. The Hewlett–Packard memristor is a passive nonlinear two-terminal circuit element that maintains a functional relationship between the time integrals of current and voltage, respectively, viz. charge and flux. In this paper, we derive several nonlinear oscillators from Chua's oscillators by replacing Chua's diodes with memristors.
