The increasing interests in analog computing nowadays call for multi-purpose analog computing platforms with reconfigurability. The advancement of analog computing, enabled by novel electronic elements like memristors, has shown its potential to sustain the exponential growth of computing demand in the new era of analog data deluge. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a platform of a memristive field-programmable analog array (memFPAA) with memristive devices serving as a variety of core analog elements and CMOS components as peripheral circuits. We reconfigure the memFPAA and implement a first-order band pass filter, an audio equalizer, and an acoustic mixed frequency classifier, as application examples. The memFPAA, featured with programmable analog memristors, memristive routing networks, and memristive vector-matrix multipliers, opens opportunities for fast prototyping analog designs as well as efficient analog applications in signal processing and neuromorphic computing.
