High-Frequency Tunable Resistorless Memcapacitor Emulator and Application

Abstract

In this paper, a new design has been proposed for the realization of high-frequency memcapacitor emulators built with three OTAs. This paper also proposes the application of memcapacitor as an amplitude modulator. Furthermore, applications of memcapacitor as a filter, Oscillator point attractor, and periodic doubler are also shown. The proposed circuits can be configured in both incremental and decremental topology. The proposed circuits and their application claim that the circuit is much simpler in design and can be utilized in both topologies. The performance of all the proposed circuits has been verified on Cadence Virtuoso Spectre using standard CMOS 180nm. Furthermore, post-layout simulations and their comparison have been carried out.
