Scientists from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Texas have discovered a new element of the circuit known as a memonator.
Memristors and MemCapacitors were previously discovered, and now Meminductor complements this line. The “meme” prefix means that these elements can store and remember earlier current or voltage values and change their properties accordingly.
Memristors are electronic devices that were first discovered by the scientist Leon Chua in 1971. Classic elements of the electrical circuit are known as resistors, capacitors and coils. Chua predicted that the Memristor would be the fourth basic element of electronic circuits. However, it wasn't until 2008 that scientists from HP Labs created the first functional memristor.
Memristor is a device that can change its resistance based on the strength of the current flowing through it. This means that the Memristor can store information and be programmed to change its resistance. Memristors also have the opportunity to “remember” their previous state. This unique feature makes memristors ideal for use in memory devices, artificial intelligence technologies and neural networks.
In addition to the Memristor, the existence of MEMCAPACITORS and MEMINDERS were also anticipated. While MEMCAPATOR was physically implemented in 2019, there was no final announcement regarding the implementation of the memann.
Abhiram Dinavahi, Alexandre Yamamoto and H. Rusty Harris showed the first physical evidence for memonation article. They created a passive system with two clamps, consisting mainly of an electromagnet affecting a pair of solid magnets. Using this system, scientists examined the density of the magnetic stream and the intensity of the magnetic field of the induction element in the circuit. Therefore, the existence of a narrow hysteresis curve inside the inductor has been proven, which leads to his memory or nature -like nature in the same definition as the Memristor and Memcapacitor. It has been shown that the implemented element has three required properties of a memanuctor. Now his place in the periodic table of circuit elements is discussed by extending the genealogy of the MEMISTOR to the MEMINDUCTORS.
