All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Referring to fig. 1-2, a programmable gain amplifying circuit provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a target amplifying circuit 1, a memristor feedback array 2, and a control module 3; a first input end of the target amplifying circuit 1 is connected with a signal source 4; the second input end of the target amplifying circuit 1 is connected with the memristor feedback array 2; the output end of the target amplifying circuit 1 is connected with the memristor feedback array 2; the control module 3 is connected with the memristor feedback array 2 and is used for responding to the adjusting instruction, and adjusting the resistance state of the memristors in the memristor feedback array 2 according to the adjusting instruction, so that the resistance value of the memristor feedback array 2 reaches a target resistance value.
The target amplification circuit 1 is a negative feedback amplification circuit including no feedback resistor. The feedback resistor refers to a resistor in the negative feedback amplifying circuit, which is connected with the inverting input end and the output end of the operational amplifier. The signal source 4 is a signal to be amplified. The negative feedback is used for adding and subtracting the feedback quantity and the input quantity, so as to adjust the net input quantity and the output quantity of the circuit.
The memristor feedback array 2 includes memristors and transistors for switching memristor states. Memristors are nonvolatile devices which can adjust the conductivity state by applying external excitation, and can automatically adjust the internal resistance value according to the external excitation, so that the memristors have the property of multiple resistance states. Therefore, in this embodiment, by adjusting the resistance state of the memristor, the memristor can display different resistance values, so that the memristor feedback array 2 can provide richer resistance value selection, flexible adjustment is realized, and the memristor is a nanoscale device, and the structure of the memristor can realize high integration and miniaturization, and occupies smaller circuit space resources.
The working principle of the embodiment is as follows: as shown in fig. 2, the input signal of the target amplifying circuit 1 is referred to as a net input amount, which depends on the input amount provided by the signal source 4 and the feedback amount provided by the memristor feedback array 2; the output signal of the target amplifying circuit 1 is called as output quantity and is used as the input signal of the memristor feedback array 2, the feedback quantity and the input quantity are subjected to the addition and subtraction operation of the target amplifying circuit 1, the net input quantity and the output quantity of the target amplifying circuit 1 can be adjusted, so that the output signal of the target amplifying circuit 1 is amplified, the amplified signal meets the precision requirement of a circuit system, the output resistance value of the memristor feedback array 2 is adjusted, the feedback quantity output by the memristor feedback array 2 can be changed, the net input quantity and the output quantity of the target amplifying circuit 1 are changed, the amplification factor is flexibly changed, and the gain adjustable effect is achieved. Therefore, in this embodiment, the memristor feedback array 2 is programmed to output different resistance values so as to generate different feedback amounts to affect the net input amount of the basic amplifying circuit, so that different feedback coefficients and voltage amplification factors are output, and compared with the existing fixed-gain negative feedback amplifying circuit, the adjusting flexibility is greatly improved.
Wherein, the feedback quantity is taken from the output voltage, so that the output voltage is stable; the feedback is taken from the output current, which will stabilize the output current. If the feedback quantity is taken from the output voltage, the feedback quantity is called voltage feedback; if taken from the output current, it is called current feedback. If the feedback quantity and the input quantity are overlapped in a voltage mode, the feedback quantity and the input quantity are called series feedback; if superimposed in a current fashion, it is called parallel feedback. The negative feedback amplifying circuit has four configurations including voltage series connection, voltage parallel connection, current series connection and current parallel connection.

The memristor feedback array 2 may be provided with at least one array cell 10, each array cell 10 including a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, a fourth transistor T4, and an inverter.

The on signal may be a high level signal, and the off signal may be a low level signal.
In a particular embodiment, the type of memristor M1 may be either a digital control type or an analog control type. The memristor M1 may have a high-low binary resistance state, a three-value resistance state, or a multi-value resistance state, where different resistance states represent different resistance values, and the embodiment uses the memristor M1 with a digitally controlled high-low binary resistance state as an example as follows:
When a low resistance value needs to be output, the control module 3 inputs a low level signal to the first programming interface OUTRES, inputs a high level signal to the second programming interface PROG, turns off the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2, turns on the third transistor T3 and the fourth transistor T4, then inputs a high level signal to a junction of the fourth transistor T4 and the inverter, and makes the memristor M1 in a low resistance state, so that the resistance value of the memristor M1 is low, and then the control module 3 inputs a high level signal to the first programming interface OUTRES, and inputs a low level signal to the second programming interface PROG, so that the memristor feedback array 2 outputs a low resistance value.
When a high resistance value needs to be output, the control module 3 inputs a low level signal to the first programming interface OUTRES and inputs a high level signal to the second programming interface PROG, then, the control module 3 inputs a low level signal to the junction of the fourth transistor T4 and the inverter, so that the memristor M1 is in a high resistance state, and the resistance value of the memristor M1 is high, and then, the control module 3 inputs a high level signal to the first programming interface OUTRES and inputs a low level signal to the second programming interface PROG, and thus, the memristor feedback array 2 outputs a high resistance value.
In a specific embodiment, when the number of array elements 10 is at least two; each array unit 10 is connected through a first port 11, a second port 12, a first programming interface OUTRES, and a second programming interface PROG.
It should be noted that, the number of array units 10 in the memristor feedback array 2 may be plural, and in this embodiment, 4 array units 10 are taken as an example for illustration as follows:

Therefore, the gain-adjustable amplifying circuit in the embodiment can more flexibly adjust the amplifying power of the amplifying circuit and reduce the occupation of circuit space resources.
In one application example, it is assumed that the memristor adopted in the embodiment is in a digitally controlled and high-low binary resistance state, wherein the resistance corresponding to the high resistance state is 10000 Ω, the resistance corresponding to the low configuration is 100 Ω, the positive threshold voltage is 1.5V, and the negative threshold voltage is-1.5V.
When the 4 memristors in the 4 array units 10 are in a low resistance state, the overall output resistance value of the memristor feedback array 2 is 25Ω; when 3 memristors are in a low resistance state and 1 memristor is in a high resistance state in the 4 array units 10, the resistance value output by the whole memristor array is 10000/301 omega approximately 33 omega; when 2 memristors are in a low resistance state and 2 memristors are in a high resistance state in the 4 array units 10, the resistance value of the whole output of the memristor array is 10000/202 omega approximately equal to 49.5; when 3 memristors are in a low resistance state and 1 memristor is in a high resistance state in the 4 array units 10, the resistance value output by the whole memristor array is 10000/103 omega-97 omega; when the 4 memristors in the 4 array units 10 are all in a high resistance state, the overall output resistance value of the memristor feedback array 2 is 10000/4Ω=2500Ω.
The control module 3 may change the number of memristors in a high resistance state and the number of memristors in a low resistance state in the memristor feedback array 2 by changing the high and low levels input to the connection part of the fourth transistor T4 and the inverter in the array unit 10, so as to change the resistance value output by the memristor feedback array 2. For example: the control module 3 can make the memristor feedback array 2 have one memristor IN a high resistance state and three memristors IN a low resistance state by inputting 1000 or 0100 or 0010 or 0001 to the junctions IN0, IN1, IN2, IN3 of the fourth transistor T4 and the inverters IN each array unit 10.
