Abstract
This invention discloses a signal processing apparatus which has N nonlinear oscillators, a circuit for coupling the N nonlinear oscillators in a loop-like form, a circuit for shifting the phase of the output signal of a particular nonlinear oscillator from among the N nonlinear oscillators in correspondence with an input signal, and a circuit for outputting the output of at least one oscillator of the N nonlinear oscillators as the output of the signal processing apparatus. This apparatus has capability to effect analog conversion, modulation or storage of an input signal.
