Abstract
A device is described for modifying the charging behavior of a charge storage device, such as a capacitor, so that the device charges substantially in accordance with a square law function responsively to a linear charging input current. The device has particular utility in a signal-conditioning system of the type including an averaging detector, a gain stage and a charge storage device coupled between the output of said detector and the input of said gain stage so that the input to said gain stage behaves in a similar manner to the output of an RMS detector.
