From the foreword:
`The bipolar transistor has a remarkable characteristic that makes it unique as a circuit design element; it displays an exponential relationship between collector current and base-to-emitter voltage that is highly accurate over an extremely wide range of currents. This conformance to a mathematical law opens up numerous possibilities for analog signal processing. Log filters represent one of the most interesting applications of this exponential relationship.'

Design and Analysis of Integrator-Based Log-Domain Filter Circuits
von Gordon W. Roberts und Vincent W. LeungDesign and Analysis of Integrator-Based Log-Domain Filter Circuits deals with the design and analysis of log-domain filter circuits. It describes several synthesis methods that aid the designer in developing bipolar or BiCMOS filter circuits with cut-off frequencies ranging from the low kilohertz range to several hundreds of megahertz. Filter response deviations due to transistor-level nonidealities are systematically analyzed, leading to effective electronic compensation schemes. Numerous examples are provided in the text with measured experimental data from IC prototypes. Design and Analysis of Integrator-Based Log-Domain Filter Circuits is intended for engineers in research or development, as well as advanced-level engineering students. Extensive discussion on filter text metrics should also interest engineers who are responsible for testing high-performance, high-speed analog or mixed-signal products.
