Emulations of memristor-family elements are very important, since their physical realizations are very difficult to achieve with recent technologies. Although some previous studies succeeded in designing memristor and memcapacitor emulators, no significant contribution towards meminductor emulator has been presented so far. The implementation of a meminductor emulator is very important, since real meminductors are not expected to appear in near future. We designed the first meminductor emulator whose inductance can be varied by an external current source without employing any memrisitve system. The principle of our architecture and its feasibility have been verified using SPICE simulation.
