    IEEE Circuits and Systems Magazine, 2024
    A compact MOSFET-C floating/grounded meminductor emulator (MIE) model is presented for high operating frequency and low power operation. The proposed MIE uses only 22 MOSFETs and two capacitors. Its performance is theoretically analyzed and rigorously verified using the Cadence Virtuoso software and hardware prototypes. The proposed MIE operates appropriately for a wide range of frequencies up to 5 MHz with <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$590 \\mu \\text{W}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> power consumption at a 180nm CMOS technology node and manifests important signature properties. The MIE layout area in 180 nm CMOS technology is <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$13107.5 \\mu \\text{m}^{2}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>. To analyze the effects of statistical variations in MIE elements, extensive Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to demonstrate the robustness of the proposed MIE. For experimental validation, hardware prototypes have been developed and tested successfully. An MIE-based adaptive learning neuromorphic circuit is presented to show that it can mimic the behavioral responses of amoeba under varying environments such as temperature.
  • A New Electronic Tunable High-Frequency Meminductor Emulator Based on a Single VDTA
    Pankaj Kumar Sharma, Sadaf Tasneem, Rajeev Kumar Ranjan
    IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2023
    In this article, we have proposed an electronic tunable grounded meminductor emulator (MIE) using a single voltage difference transconductance amplifier (VDTA). Along with one VDTA, two MOSFETs and two capacitors are used in the proposed MIE. Overall, the proposed MIE requires only 18 MOS transistors and two grounded capacitors. The performance of the proposed MIE was validated using Cadence Virtuoso with a 180-nm CMOS library. The layout area of the emulator is only 1081 $\\mu \\text{m}^{2}$ . The proposed design operates up to 25 MHz. To validate the theoretical and simulation results, an experiment was performed using CA3080 ICs and experimental results validate the simulated result. The power consumption of the proposed design is 5.93 mW.
  • Electronically Tunable Memristor Emulator Implemented Using a Single Active Element and Its Application in Adaptive Learning

    Sensors, 2023
    In recent times, much-coveted memristor emulators have found their use in a variety of applications such as neuromorphic computing, analog computations, signal processing, etc. Thus, a 100 MHz flux-controlled memristor emulator is proposed in this research brief. The proposed memristor emulator is designed using a single differential voltage current conveyor (DVCC), three PMOS transistors, and one capacitor. Among three PMOS transistors, two transistors are used to implement an active resistor, and one transistor is used as the multiplier required for the necessary memristive behaviors. Through simple adjustment of the switch, the proposed emulator can be operated in incremental as well as decremental configurations. The simulations are performed using a 180 nm technology node to validate the proposed design and are experimentally verified using AD844AN and CD4007 ICs. The memristor states of the proposed emulator are perfectly retained even in the absence of external stimuli, thereby ascertaining the non-volatility behavior. The robustness of the design is further analyzed using the PVT and Monte Carlo simulations, which suggest that the circuit operation is not hindered by the mismatch and process variations. A simple neuromorphic adaptive learning circuit based on the proposed memristor is also designed as an application.

    In this article, we have proposed a grounded memristor emulator model using CCII and VDIBA blocks. The proposed circuit also uses one resistor and one capacitor along with analog building blocks. The presented memristor emulator operates up to 25 MHz. The proposed memristor is simulated using Cadence Virtuoso 180 nm CMOS parameter. The proposed memristor works at ± 0.9 V and the power consumption is 2.4 mW. The adaptability of the memristor emulator during circuit implementation is tested by connecting the memristors in parallel.
  • Grounded Memristor Emulator Using Single Active Block

    19th International Conference on Electrical Engineering Electronics Computer Telecommunications and Information Technology Ecti Con 2022, 2022
    This research article exhibits grounded memristor emulator circuit. It includes a single Differential Voltage Current Conveyor Transconductance Amplifier (DVCCTA) as an active block with few grounded passive components. The incremental and decremental configurations for the proposed memristor can be achieved through a simple flip of the input ports. The proposed model also provides a resistor-based controllability feature. The workability of the proposed memristor has been demonstrated using PSPICE simulation with CMOS 0.18 μm TSMC technology parameter. The operating frequency and tunability responses in the current-voltage (I-V) plane have been verified in the simulation section and can operate in the megahertz range, showing acceptable accord with the theory. Furthermore, Monte Carlo process analysis, as well as the single and parallel-connected structure, have been analyzed to examine the robustness of the proposed ME model. The proposed emulator circuit is grounded, straightforward and prohibits the use of extra sub-circuit elements making it suitable for integrated circuits implementation.

    In this article, we have proposed an emulator using DVCC and OTA analog building blocks to emulate memristive behavior. Along with OTA and DVCC, one resistor and one capacitor are used in the memristor emulator. The presented memristor emulator works in incremental and decremental mode and operates up to 8 MHz. The proposed memristor emulator is simulated using PSpice with a 180 nm CMOS parameter. The flexibility of the memristor is tested by simulating it at different temperatures. The adaptability of the memristor emulator during circuit implementation is tested by connecting the memristors in parallel.
