Abstract

In the article, the author considers an analog circuit (analog computer) in which the dynamics of voltage changes is described by the Chua system. The initial states (setting the initial voltages) are found which bring the circuit to the limit mode of operation (a hidden attractor): a stable limit cycle with a frequency of $\approx0.5$ Hz. In this case, the received signals have a shape close to a harmonic signal. The developed oscillation generator circuit contains seven operational amplifiers, does not have a memristor which significantly reduces the cost of assembly, inductors which eliminates the problems of their manufacture, and gyrators. The values of the resistance and capacitance ratings corresponding to the considered system parameters are deter-mined. One of the inverters of the circuit based on the operational amplifier models the nonlinearity of the stop type, present in the Chua system, periodically entering saturation states. After assembling the device, the output signals of the circuit corresponding to the phase coordinates of the Chua system are recorded in the text file in time steps using a digital oscilloscope. The parameters of the mathematical model in the computer program developed by the author are identified, the adequacy of the model is checked by the coefficient of determination and the Fisher criterion. Also, by numerically investigating the Poisson stability of the found mode in the Chua system, the period and frequency of the obtained cycle are determined, and a comparison is made with the frequency given by the digital oscilloscope.
