An Electronically Tunable Meminductor Emulator and Its Application in Chaotic Oscillator and Adaptive Learning Circuit

In this paper, a new design of meminductor emulator has been suggested using voltage differencing buffered amplifier (VDBA), current differencing buffered amplifier (CDBA), a resistor and two grounded capacitors. The key advantages of the proposed meminductor emulator circuits are their design simplicity, implementation without memristors and easily adjustable design for grounded/floating decremental to incremental configurations. The proposed circuits have been designed and simulated using 180-nm process technologies in the Mentor Graphics Eldo simulation tool. The nonvolatility and Monte Carlo analysis of the proposed meminductor emulators have been given. A comparison table has also been presented to discuss the benefits of the suggested meminductor emulator designs with existing designs. The operation of the designed emulator has been corroborated by using it in the chaotic oscillator and neuromorphic circuit applications.
