Abstract :
The main purpose of this paper is to explore the oscillating characteristics of an astable multivibrator based on memristor and 555 timer. An analog circuit is utilized to simulate magnetic flux controlled memristor and then applied to implement the astable multivibrator. The voltage across the memristor emulator is analytically calculated. Simulation is carried out to confirm the theoretical analysis. The agreement between simulation and analytical calculation validates the feasibility of using memritor to achieve astable multivibrator.
