Analog Emulator of Genuinely Floating Memcapacitor with Piecewise-Linear Constitutive Relation

This paper presents a method for emulating floating memcapacitors with piecewise-linear constitutive relations between time-domain integrals of voltage and charge. The emulation is based on multiple-state floating capacitor, implemented via the switched-capacitor technique. The states of internal switches are derived from the memcapacitor memory, which stores the history of the terminal voltage. The procedure is demonstrated on a two-state memcapacitor. Computer simulations are compared with measurements on the manufactured specimen.
