Εφαρμογές των Memristors σε Ψηφιακά και Αναλογικά Κυκλώματα
Translated title:
Memristive applications in digital and analog circuits
Summary:
The present essay is analyzing the memristor, which was discovered by Professor Leon Chua and is now the fourth basic electrical element.
The first section details the first application, its operating mode and its properties. The
attempts to model the device are presented over time. In order to distinguish the
differences among them, the relationships between the examined variables of the most
important models are shown by simulation in order to show the interaction between
them and ultimately to conclude which theoretical model is more like the physical one.
Moreover, three different ways of implementing the digital logic circuits using the
memristor as a basic element (operating mode Magic - MRL - Imply) are presented. In
the last section, we present and compare analog amplifiers of variable gain and
bandwidth using the memristor as a variable resistor.
The basic conclusion is that the application of the memristor to replace the resistor
presents important advantages such as the smaller dimensions of the device, the stable
output voltage to temperature changes as well as its ability to control the output.
