A novel low input and high output resistance current mirror using class-AB FVF cell is presented in this paper. In the proposed current mirror, class-AB cascoded FVF cell acts as a current sensing cell and results in low input resistance of the proposed current mirror. The proposed current mirror uses a regulated cascodeoutput stage to enhance its output resistance. The various other advantages offered by the proposed current mirror are large current mirroring range with high accuracy, low THD, and wide bandwidth. The physical layout of the proposed current mirror has been designed in the Cadence tool. The post-layout simulation results have also been demonstrated to validate its performance.

In this paper, new meminductor emulators have been proposed using operational transconductance amplifiers (OTA), a current differencing buffered amplifier (CDBA) and two grounded capacitors. Most meminductor emulators reported in the literature use memristor and resistor in their design but proposedemulators are memristor-less and resistor-less. The proposed emulators are designed for both decremental/ incremental configurations of grounded and floating types of meminductors. The operating frequencies of the proposed emulators are extended up to 2 MHz for both grounded and floating configurations. The proposed circuits are electronically tunable as induced flux is controlled by changing the value of transconductance gain. The Monte-Carlo analysis and temperature analysis have been done and are found to be satisfactory. Simulation results have been obtained using Mentor Graphics Eldo simulation tool with 180 nm CMOS technology parameters. The performance of the proposed meminductor emulator has been verified by embedding theemulator in the design of adaptive learning circuits.
