In this paper, equivalent‐circuit representations are presented for nonlinear arrays of weakly coupled molecular oscillators demonstrating intrinsic localized oscillating modes, also called ‘discrete breathers’. Typical examples are arrays or strings of diatomic molecules coupled, e.g. with weak hydrogen bonds, or arrays of field‐coupled nanodevice resonators. Circuits demonstrating discrete breathing are presented. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
