Memristor-based fine resolution programmable resistance and its applications

This paper demonstrates that memristors can be used to form a fine resolution programmable resistance without perturbations by parasitic components. By exploiting the memristor characteristics, fine resolution programmable memristance is achieved by varying the amount of charges flowing or flux across the memristor. Under the same circuit configuration with same or even less amount of parasitics, memristance is reconfigured with fine resolution by controlling the input pulse width and its frequency. This paper shows an example of pulse programmed memristors and their analog circuit applications.
