A simple feedback loop and a mean-field approximation are employed to simulate the memory effect in the exchange-coupled magnetic system. The nonlinearity of the feedback turns out to be the crucial factor for the appearance of hysteresis loops. A threshold value above which the hysteresis disappears is the mean-field transition temperature. Temperature dependence of the coercive field is investigated.
