A memristive conservative chaotic circuit consisting of a memristor and a capacitor

In this paper, a new memristor model is proposed and the corresponding emulator is presented to explore its electrical characteristics. A memristive chaotic circuit is designed based on this memristor and a capacitor, which has a conservative nature. The dynamic properties of the system, including high sensitivity to initial values and parameters, coexisting orbits, and transient phenomena, are obtained and investigated by Lyapunov exponents and phase volumes. The chaotic characteristics of the system are confirmed by circuit simulations and experimental devices, which illustrate the validity of the theoretical analyses. Furthermore, a random sequence generator is developed to explore the potential application of the circuit. Published under license by AIP Publishing.
