A new chaos generator that uses the second generation current conveyor
(CCII) as the active building block and produces a chaotic current ou
tput signal is introduced. The procedure of obtaining the generator by
modifying a current mode sinusoidal oscillator using a nonlinear resi
stor of antisymmetrical current-voltage characteristics is emphasised.
The small input resistance associated with the CCII inverting input t
erminal is found to be responsible for stimulating the circuit's chaot
ic nature. Experimental results, PSPICE simulations and numerical simu
lations of the derived mathematical model are included.
