This paper mainly discusses the order-frequency characteristics of a promising circuit element: fractor. The concept of fractance, as the fractional-order impedance of a fractor, arose following the successful synthesis of a fractional differentiator or integrator in an analog circuit. In this paper, we studied some electrical properties of a fractor. In particular, the order-frequency characteristics of a fractor are introduced. First, the order-sensitivity characteristics of a fractor are proposed. Second, the order-frequency characteristics of a fractor are studied. Third, the time constant of a fractor is analyzed. Last, through mathematical analysis and simulation results, we discussed in detail some issues of the electrical properties of a fractor, especially its time constant.
