A Programmable Memristor Potentiometer and Its Application in the Filter Circuit

TLDR
An amplifier circuit whose magnification is precisely adjustable and an active memristor-filter whose cut-off frequency and phase are adjustable as well is presented, which provides a new way for the integrated circuit design in the future.
Abstract
Based on the electrical properties of memristor, the spintronic memristor is introduced into analog circuit design. Through programming the memristor by pulse signals, a programmable memristor potentiometer is designed in this paper. The potentiometer has the advantages of simple structure, small volume and continuous variable dynamic range. Based on the potentiometer above, this paper presents an amplifier circuit whose magnification is precisely adjustable and an active memristor-filter whose cut-off frequency and phase are adjustable as well. The circuit is characterized with smaller size, higher integration and lower power consumption, and its correctness and feasibility are verified by SPICE simulation. The research in this paper will promote the application of memristor in analog circuit, in addition, the performance of programmable memristor-analog circuit is satisfactory, which provides a new way for the integrated circuit design in the future.

A Family of Binary Memristor-Based Low-Pass Filters with Controllable Cut-Off Frequency

TL;DR: A method for hot-line adjusting cut-off frequencies is newly proposed by inputting a preset DC voltage together with the to-be-filtered signal, without the requirement of extra memristance write circuits, which is hence beneficial for integrated implementation.

Notice of Retraction: Frequency Analysis of Memristor Based Low Pass Bessel Filter

TL;DR: A memristor based active low pass Bessel filter, where resistor elements were replaced by memristors, resulted in slight deviation from the original circuit with the same power consumption and verified adjustability of several filter characteristics.

Memristive devices and systems

TL;DR: In this article, a broad generalization of memristors to an interesting class of nonlinear dynamical systems called memristive systems is introduced, which are unconventional in the sense that while they behave like resistive devices, they can be endowed with a rather exotic variety of dynamic characteristics.
