9. APPLICATION
 Non-volatile memory
 Low-power & remote sensing
 Mimic Neuromorphic systems
 Logical Operations
Dept of computer 9/17MEMRISTOR

10. MERITS
 Remember data
 Scaled to small Geometrics
 Compatibility
 Cheaper
 Lower power consumption
 Faster
 Replace Flash Memories

11. DEMERITS
 Do not properly distinguish internal & external
electric field.
 Poorly Formulated
 No memcapacitive effect.

12. NEW HORIZON
Dept of computer MEMRISTOR 12/18

13. CONCLUSION
 Memristors will revolutionize the 21st century as
radically as the transistor in the 20th century.
 Memristor can offer a product with a storage density
of about 20 gigabytes per square centimetre by
2013.
 ―It‘s time to rewrite all the Electronics Engineering books.‖
