Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of electronic communication and information engineering, and in particular relates to a switchable floating memristor emulator based on bidirectional symmetric characteristics. Background Art

[0002] Memristor was originally conceived by Professor Shaotang Cai as a two-terminal electronic component used to correspond to the missing constituent flux connection between charge and magnetic flux. Because memristors cannot be directly commercialized at present, various memristor simulation circuits have been proposed and used to discover various dynamic characteristics of memristor systems. In the field of chaos, the nonlinear structure of memristors greatly enriches the dynamic characteristics of the system, making chaotic systems more prone to hyperchaos, multi-stability and other phenomena. Therefore, the complexity of chaotic systems is improved, and the security performance in chaotic encryption is further improved. However, these actual simulation circuits have a restrictive feature, that is, one terminal is connected to the ground and the other terminal is connected to the ground, which limits their widespread use in circuit design and applications. Therefore, memristors with floating ground characteristics have received widespread attention. Summary of the invention

[0037] The present invention analyzes the feasibility of realizing bidirectional conduction in theory based on the definition of memristor. Figure 1 The figure shows two states of a grounded memristor, forward connection and reverse connection. 1 Represents a memristor, and sets the difference between terminal A and terminal B to When , it indicates positive connection, and the difference is When it indicates reverse connection, according to formula (1), the current in (2) and (3) is obtained and The memristor model, represents the first current, which is the current flowing into terminal A when the grounded memristor is in the positive connection state. represents the third current, which is the current flowing into terminal A when the grounded memristor is in reverse connection. Because the memristor is a resistor whose resistance changes with the magnetic control, Kirchhoff's current law gives , and get formula (4), where represents the second current, which is the current flowing into terminal B when the grounded memristor is in reverse connection:

[0043] From equations (2) and (4), we can see that , It’s all about variables When is an even function, equation (5) is satisfied. Therefore, it can be obtained that the original definition of memristor satisfies the bidirectional conduction characteristic only under limited conditions. Figure 2 is the circuit model of floating memristor based on formula (1), where M 1 Still represents a memristor.

[0047] In summary, a memristor with bidirectional conduction characteristics needs to satisfy not only formula (1) but also formula (8):

[0048] (8) Based on the constraints of formula (1) and formula (8), the present invention designs a floating memristor structure with bidirectional symmetry characteristics, as shown in equation (9):

The first resistor R 1 With capacitor C 1 connected to realize the integration circuit, and the first voltage V 1 Connect the second resistor R in series 2 Connect to Node . Multiplier U 2 The X non-inverting input terminal X1 and the Y non-inverting input terminal Y1 are connected to the node , X inverting input terminal X2 and Y inverting input terminal Y2 are grounded, and the voltage output terminal W is connected to the potentiometer R 3 , the input terminal Z is connected to the third resistor R 3 At 90% resistance, the positive power supply terminal VS+ is connected to the positive power supply Vp, and the negative power supply terminal VS- is connected to the negative power supply Vn.

[0051] Multiplier U 3 The X non-inverting input terminal X1 is connected to the second voltage V 2 , Y non-inverting input terminal Y1 is connected to multiplier U 2 The W end of the Y1 is connected to the input signal A end, the Y inverting input end Y2 is connected to the input signal B, and the Z end is connected to the second switch S 2 , the positive power supply terminal VS+ is connected to the positive power supply Vp, and the negative power supply terminal VS- is connected to the negative power supply Vn; the second switch S 2 The 1 end is grounded, the 2 end is connected to the input signal B, and the W end is connected to the first switch S 1 , the first switch S 1 The fifth resistor R is connected in series with the 2 ends of 5 , and then connect the third switch S in series3 , the third switch S 3 The 1 terminal is connected to the multiplier U 3 The Y non-inverting input terminal Y1, the third switch S 3 The 2 ends of the multiplier U 3 The Y inverting input terminal Y2 of the first switch S 1 Connect terminal 1 of the operational amplifier U 5 The in-phase terminal 3 and the current output terminal 5 are first connected to the fourth switch S 4 Then connect it back to port B;

[0052] U 5 The inverting terminal 2 is connected in series with a fourth resistor R 4 With operational amplifier U 4 The inverting terminal 2 is connected, the non-inverting terminal is grounded, and U 5 The current output terminal 5 is connected to the A port, the positive power supply terminals of both are connected to the positive power supply Vp, and the negative power supply terminals are connected to the negative power supply Vn;

[0053] When the first switch S 1 and the second switch S 2 Placed at terminal 1 and the fourth switch S 4 When closed, the memristor emulator is in a floating memristor state;

[0054] When the first switch S 1 Placed at terminal 2, the second switch S 2 Placed at terminal 1, the third switch S 3 Placed at terminal 1 and the fourth switch S 4 When disconnected, the memristor simulator is in the in-phase grounded memristor state. At this time, the B terminal is in a high impedance state, and the A terminal can input the excitation signal normally. Therefore, the B terminal needs to be grounded when observing the hysteresis loop.

[0055] When the first switch S 1 , the second switch S 2 and the third switch S 3 Both are placed at the 2nd terminal and the fourth switch S 4 When disconnected, the memristor simulator is in the reverse grounded memristor state. At this time, terminal A is in a high impedance state, and terminal B can normally input the excitation signal. Therefore, terminal A needs to be grounded when observing the hysteresis loop. The memristor structure of the actual circuit is obtained by the superposition theorem as equation (10):

[0056] (10)

[0057] The resistor R 1 =R 3 =R 4 =1kΩ, R 2 =5kΩ, R 5 =500Ω, C 1=100nF, V 1 = -3V, V 2 =1V, Vp=15V, Vn=-15V. The resistor R 5 The purpose is to convert the voltage output of the multiplier into a current output. It does not participate in the internal structure calculation of the memristor itself, and any reasonable value can be taken. Figure 4 For this parameter, when V M This is the hysteresis loop when the frequency is 3kHz and the amplitude is 3Vpp. Figure 5 For this parameter, when V M This is the in-phase memristor hysteresis loop at a frequency of 500Hz and an amplitude of 3Vpp. Figure 6 For this parameter, when V M is the anti-phase memristor hysteresis loop at a frequency of 500Hz and an amplitude of 3Vpp. Figure 4 It can be seen (the left side is AB= V M , on the right side is BA = V M ), the hysteresis loop does not change shape with the change of the conduction direction of the memristor, verifying its bidirectional conduction characteristics. Figure 5 and Figure 6 It can be seen that the hysteresis loops of the in-phase and anti-phase grounded memristor emulators are completely different under the stimulation of the same signal. This shows that even if the internal equations of the grounded memristor emulator meet the requirements of memristor non-directionality, it cannot achieve non-directionality in structure. This further proves the necessity of realizing bidirectional conduction of the memristor emulator in the floating state, and at the same time makes the memristor emulator multi-modal.

[0058] The input terminals A and B of the bidirectional symmetrical convertible floating memristor emulator provided in this embodiment are highly symmetrical inside the circuit, so the hysteresis loop of the floating memristor does not change with the change of the conduction direction of A and B. This circuit uses AD633 as the voltage input terminal and AD844 as the current output terminal to completely separate the voltage operation and circuit output, making the circuit structure more streamlined and user-friendly and practical, with certain scalability. At the same time, the emulator allows the user to select the structure inside the memristor emulator through a switch to achieve free switching between grounded memristor and floating memristor.

[0059] The floating memristor emulator circuit inherits the floating characteristics of the original floating memristor, is not restricted by grounding, and ensures that the input and output currents at both ends of the memristor emulator are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. In addition, the present invention also has a bidirectional symmetric characteristic under floating conditions. In a single system, the memristor structure of the memristor itself can be selected by changing the connection direction of the memristor; when multiple systems are reused, three systems can also share the same memristor structure. The floating memristor circuit based on the bidirectional conduction characteristic proposed by the present invention structurally meets the original memristor definition formula, proving that the bidirectional conduction characteristic is a potential achievable characteristic of the memristor. By meeting the relevant theoretical conditions, the memristor circuit can be freed from the constraints of directionality and can be non-directional like a resistor, and the memristor emulator can be connected to the circuit in series or in parallel under floating conditions. In addition, the present invention introduces several switches to realize the free switching between grounded memristors and bidirectional symmetrical floating memristors. The present invention theoretically derives the establishment conditions and verifies the relevant results through actual circuits.

[0060] The present invention provides a switchable floating memristor emulator based on bidirectional symmetric characteristics. There are many methods and ways to implement the technical solution. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. All components not specified in this embodiment can be implemented by existing technologies.
