In this paper, we continue our study of rank one chaos in switch-controlled circuits. Periodically controlled switches are added to Chua's original, piecewise linear circuit to generate rank one attractors in the vicinity of an asymptotically stable periodic solution that is relatively large in size. Our previous investigations relied heavily on the smooth nonlinearity of the unforced systems, and were by large restricted to a small neighborhood of supercritical Hopf bifurcations. Whereas the
