Abstract :
We demonstrate a practical application of memristors in a cross-bar memory array. The full set-up consists of only a PC, an mBED microcontroller and a PCB hosting external components and the memristor cross-bar chip. The system can be used for general purpose memory storage, but in this case we use it as a binary image storage device. A MATLAB interface allows the user to load a binary image into the memory and observe the resulting internal memory states of each memristor in the array along with key performance metrics describing the speed and degree of success of the memory `write´ operation.
