This paper is concerned with the exponential stability analysis for a class of cellular neural networks with both interval time-varying delays and general activation functions. The boundedness assumption of the activation function is not required. The limitation on the derivative of time delay being less than one is relaxed and the lower bound of time-varying delay is not restricted to be zero. A new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional involving more information on the state variables is established to derive a novel exponential stability criterion. The obtained condition shows potential advantages over the existing ones since no useful item is ignored throughout the estimate of upper bound of the derivative of Lyapunov functional. Finally, three numerical examples are included to illustrate the proposed design procedures and applications.
► We remove the boundedness assumption of the activation function.
► We relax the limitations on the derivative of time delay being less than one and the lower bound of time-varying delay being zero.
► We construct a more general Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional by utilizing the central point of the lower and upper bounds of delay.
