Memristors And Their Application In Neuromorphic Computing

- Advertisement -

Venturing into memristor technology brings us nearer to brain-like AI. This leap could reshape how we think about computing.

Memristors, a portmanteau of ‘memory’ and ‘resistor,’ are a groundbreaking class of passive two-terminal circuit elements. First theorised by Leon Chua in 1971 and physically realised by HP Labs in 2008, memristors retain a state of resistance based on the history of voltage and current passed through them. This unique property makes them similar to synapses in the human brain, enabling them to play a crucial role in neuromorphic computing.
