Abstract :
An exponential function generator using the relation between emitter-base voltage and collector current of a silicon transistor is described briefly. The inherent temperature dependence is greatly reduced by using an emitter coupled pair of transistors and one temperature dependent resistor. The exponential range covers about 9 decades of current at 60 /spl deg/ C.
