Abstract

In this paper, new meminductor emulators have been proposed using operational transconductance amplifiers (OTA), a current differencing buffered amplifier (CDBA) and two grounded capacitors. Most meminductor emulators reported in the literature use memristor and resistor in their design but proposed emulators are memristor-less and resistor-less. The proposed emulators are designed for both decremental/incremental configurations of grounded and floating types of meminductors. The operating frequencies of the proposed emulators are extended up to 2 MHz for both grounded and floating configurations. The proposed circuits are electronically tunable as induced flux is controlled by changing the value of transconductance gain. The Monte-Carlo analysis and temperature analysis have been done and are found to be satisfactory. Simulation results have been obtained using Mentor Graphics Eldo simulation tool with 180 nm CMOS technology parameters. The performance of the proposed meminductor emulator has been verified by embedding the emulator in the design of adaptive learning circuits.
