摘要

This research presents a miniature charge-controlled memristor emulator that employs a single MOSFET and a single MOSCAP, operating without supplementary bias. The design supports a wide frequency range from 1 kHz to 40 MHz at different capacitance and functions at a low supply voltage of ± 0.45 V. The emulator, developed and validated in Cadence Virtuoso using standard 90 nm GPDK CMOS technology, exhibits notable memristive behavior defined by a pinched hysteresis loop in the IV plane. Its streamlined architecture reduces component count and power consumption compared to conventional systems. The proposed emulator is evaluated in two application domains. Initially, it is included into a CMOS Schmitt trigger, demonstrating configurable threshold levels and programmable hysteresis, so enhancing noise immunity. Secondly, it is employed in memristor-capacitor-based filters (low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass), exhibiting frequency-dependent performance and accurate tuning via memristance modulation. The simulation results validate its dynamic switching, stability, and performance across the whole operational frequency spectrum. The design offers a practical, scalable, and energy-efficient solution for analog computing, neuromorphic systems, and reconfigurable signal processing.
