Abstract
A describing function representation of the saturation nonlinearity of operational amplifiers is used to formulate the nonlinear transfer functions of multiple-amplifier filters. The efficacy of various functional approximations for shortening computer time is assessed. Computationally efficient means of predicting jump resonance and nonlinear oscillations are presented, based on the representation.<>
