Abstract
A device for correcting the linearity of ramps of a saw-tooth signal provided across a capacitor, charged by a first current source and periodically discharged at a desired frequency. The device modulates the charging current of the capacitor by a correction current to render the ramps of the signal not linear. In addition, the device includes circuitry to render the correction current proportional to the current provided by the first current source.
