About v-i Pinched Hysteresis of Some Non-Memristive Systems

Figure 5

Pinched hysteresis loops generated by nonlinear inductor with asymmetric characteristic for and for , Wb/mA, Wb/nA in series with 100 resistor, driven by a sinusoidal 1 mA current. The loop area is increasing when the frequency increases from 1 kHz to 10 kHz. For kHz, the loops occupy 3 quadrants of plane, resembling an active memristive system.
