Vibrational resonance (VR) has been extensively studied in symmetric circuits, but research on this phenomenon in asymmetric electronic circuits is understudied. The current study aims to model a novel asymmetric electronic circuit and investigate the occurrence of VR in the circuit. This oscillator shows changes according to four control parameters, with the aid of two buffers. The amplification of signals in electronic circuits gives interesting results, vibrational resonance is one of the phenomena which is based on the amplification of signals. In this study, the asymmetric strength caused by the potentiometers and the frequencies influence are the major aims explored. Interestingly, the circuit shows different types of behaviors that are pointed out through waveform profiles, bifurcation diagrams, largest Lyapunov exponent, and the phase portraits. The dynamic of the system is studied theoretically, numerically and by Pspice Simulation. The Pspice estimates match with numerical simulations. We use the response Q(ω) method, based on the sine and cosine of the Fourier component to study VR. Our discovery suggests that the asymmetric parameter and the amplitude of the high frequency, both affect the occurrence of vibrational resonance.
