- Description:
The memristor is a two-terminal resistor with memory, whose resistance depends on the time integral of the voltage across its terminals. rmin and rmax provide the lower and upper limits of the resistance, rinit is its starting value (no voltage applied so far). The voltage has to be above a threshold vt to become effective in changing the resistance. alpha and beta are two model parameters. The memristor code model is derived from a SPICE subcircuit published in [23].
