Abstract
The new circuit element memristor is under inspection for new types of analog applications. Memristors have already been used in analog applications such as amplifier, filter, oscillator and chaotic circuits. In literature, it has been recently shown that a memristor-based sawtooth signal generator can be made using simulations with different memristor model. Such a sawtooth signal generator needs experimental verification with a memristor. Self-Directed Channel (SDC) Carbon-based Memristors are in the market now. Once, the memristor technology is matured enough, its applications may also follow/come out soon. In this study, a Self-Directed Channel (SDC) Carbon-based Memristor is used to make the sawtooth signal generator. Experiments are also performed for this sawtooth signal generator. Low- and high-frequency behavior of the signal generator is also shown.
