ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a device for the generation of transfer functions by segments. One of the device comprises at least two sets of amplifiers having different gains; a comparator for comparing an input signal with at least one reference signal and a switch which is controlled by the output from the comparator, for switching between the at least two sets of amplifiers depending on the status of the comparator output. Where the at least two sets of amplifiers having different gains, at least one gain is greater than 1, and at least one gain is less than 1.
