“…In the equation provided, μ represents the effective carrier mobility, C ox denotes the gate-oxide capacitance per unit area, W and L represent the effective channel width and length of the i-th MOS transistor, and K i corresponds to the gain factor of the Arbel-Goldminz cells. It is important to note that the AG cells employed in this configuration do not introduce additional imperfections in terms of voltage and current gain, unlike certain other active blocks such as current-conveyers [33]. These alternative active blocks are often constrained by limitations in slew rate, bandwidth, and dynamic ranges.…”

This paper introduces two novel emulator circuits that employ a single active block. The first circuit utilizes a Voltage Differencing Transconductance Amplifier (VDTA) to emulate the behavior of a floating/grounded incremental/decremental flux-controlled meminductor. The second circuit, based on a Voltage Differencing Current Conveyor (VDCC), emulates the characteristics of memcapacitance. Both emulation circuits are constructed using capacitors as the only type of grounded passive element. Notably, these circuits possess electronic tunability, enabling control over the realized inverse meminductance/memcapacitance. The theoretical analysis of the proposed emulators includes an investigation into potential non-idealities and parasitic effects. By carefully selecting the passive circuit elements, efforts were made to minimize the impact of these unwanted effects. In comparison to existing designs documented in the literature, the proposed circuits demonstrate remarkable simplicity. Additionally, they exhibit wide frequency operability (up to 50 MHz) and successfully pass the non-volatility test. Simulation results conducted using 0.18 μm CMOS technology and a ±0.9 V supply voltage align closely with the theoretical predictions. Furthermore, Monte Carlo simulations and corner analysis are employed to evaluate the circuit's robustness. To validate the feasibility of the proposed solution, experimental tests are performed using commercially available components.

SummaryIn this paper, a new floating memcapacitor emulator that consists of a single multiplier and only four transistors without using passive elements is proposed. While two of these transistors work as MOS capacitors, two of them are used to provide transconductance gain. Moreover, the proposed memcapacitor operates at high frequencies thanks to having simple structures. Furthermore, fix and variable parts of memcapacitance can be tuned electronically by changing DC bias voltages. In order to investigate the performance of the proposed memcapacitor, simulation results are given for different operating frequencies, radical temperature changes, memory effects, and Monte Carlo analysis. Moreover, to confirm the practical realization of the proposed memcapacitor, the proposed floating memcapacitor is implemented by using commercial devices as AD633, ALD1106, and ALD1107. Experimental results of the proposed circuit are given for different operating frequencies and DC supply voltages. Also, a memcapacitor‐based circuit that emulates the relationship between the amoeba's locomotive speed and temperature is given as an application of the proposed memcapacitor. The results for the proposed memcapacitor are in good agreement with theoretical data.
