Abstract

It is possible to use the new electronic circuit element memristor in analog applications. Memristors or memristor emulators have already been applied in analog applications such as amplifiers, filters, oscillators, and chaotic circuits. In literature, it has been recently demonstrated that a memristor-based sawtooth signal generator can be built utilizing a memristor emulator and simulations with various memristor models. Such a sawtooth signal generator needs experimental verification with a memristor. Self-Directed Channel (SDC) Carbon-based Memristors are in the market now. Once, the memristor technology is mature enough, its applications may also follow soon. Any memristor application should be realized with a memristor, not an emulator. Knowm memristor has not been used to design a sawtooth signal generator in the literature previously. The aim of the study is to show that a sawtooth signal generator can be made using a Self-Directed Channel (SDC) Carbon-based Memristor and to examine it experimentally. The performance of this sawtooth signal generator is evaluated. The waveforms of the proposed circuit are also examined by varying its operating frequency. The simulation and experimental results are compared. It has been found that its waveforms can be predicted well up to 350 kHz and its high-frequency behavior is not predicted well above 350 kHz by the memristor model used.
