6. Memristor is really aMEMory ResISTOR
Memristor can be defined as a two
terminal device which shows the
relation between magnetic flux
and charge

8. The term Memristor was first proposed by
Leon Chaua in 1971 when he was a rising
professor at
The University of California
Berkeley

9. MEMRISTOR
emristor
A memristor is a non-
linear resistor, a
resistor whose
resistance changes
over time based on
the amount of
current that has
passed through it.
11. Use less energy and produce less heat.
Does not lose information when turned off.
Have great data density.
Combines the jobs of working memory and
hard drives into one tiny device.
Faster and less expensive than MRAM.
20. Development of nonvolatile memory with a
memristor base.
HP is currently focusing on this possibility.
Use less power.
More magnetic than magnetic disks.
Could lead to replacement of the transistor
Could be put in mobile phones as monitoring
devices to track the pollution and other things in
environment.
Future Technological
Significance
21. To conclude
It is sure that Memristor is going to revolutionaries the 21st
century as radically as the transistor in the 20th century
But Memristor will have to wait a few years for a
killer app like transistor which had to wait almost a decade
after it’s invention for the killer app in the form of hearing aids
Finally as Leon O Chua mentioned
It’s time to rewrite all the EE textbooks”
