ABSTRACT:
An integratable amplifier circuit with logarithmic electronic gain control capability. The circuit is suitable for audio applications and permit logarithmic control of volume with an external potentiometer without need to send the audio signal through control lines. In addition, the temperature coefficient of the gain is maintained at a very low level over a wide gain range.
