Abstract: This paper studies simple hyperchaotic circuits consisting of one linear 3-port voltage-controlled current source (ab. VCCS), two linear capacitors and one dependent switched capacitor. The dynamics is described by a normal form equation and a return map can be derived. Using a mapping procedure, it is shown that the circuits exhibit interesting hyperchaotic attractors.
