ABSTRACT:
An improved substantially "zero distortion" four quadrant modulator of the type including a pair of differential elements respectively coupled to the Y input port terminals of the modulator and exhibiting nonlinear amplitude transfer functions, includes the means for substantially linearizing the nonlinear transfer function. The means includes a pair of operational amplifiers, each having an input coupled to a respective terminal of the Y input port and an output coupled to the corresponding differential element so that the differential element is disposed in the feedback path of the operational amplifier.
