  • Abstract
    A technique which utilizes an exponentially varying electrical signal in an inverse manner to derive the logarithm of an input signal is described. By employing a parallel arrangement of such circuits it is shown that the dynamic range for logarithmic conversion can be greatly extended without loss of accuracy.
