Abstract

In this paper, a new SPICE macromodel and CMOS emulator for memristors are proposed and verified to fit to the memristor's model equation very well in the entire range of memristor's resistance from the RESET state to the SET state. Compared with the memristor's model equation, average percentage errors in the new SPICE macromodel and in the 4-bit CMOS emulator are less than 0.5% and 0.9%, respectively. In addition, the CMOS emulator for memristors which can be implemented by a CMOS circuit will be very useful to design and verify various peripheral circuits for memristor applications particularly when the memristor fabrication process is not ready.
