| Summary: | Symmetry brings beauty, while asymmetry is the general law of nature. This paper reports a novel parallel-type asymmetric memristive diode-bridge (AMDB) emulator, which is implemented by an unbalance diode-bridge linked with a RC filter. Following the voltage constraints of the unbalance diode-bridge, the mathematical model of the parallel-type AMDB emulator is established. Thereafter, the asymmetric property of the hysteresis loops is demonstrated by the numerical simulations and confirmed by the hardware experiments. Furthermore, by importing the parallel-type AMDB emulator into the classical Chua’s circuit, a novel memristive Chua’s circuit is proposed, so that the asymmetric double-scroll chaotic attractor, asymmetric coexisting single-scroll chaotic attractors, and asymmetric coexisting limit cycles can be revealed herein. The parallel-type AMDB emulator enriches the types of memristor emulators and it can mimic the asymmetric property of the physical memristor device.
