ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor emulation of a vacuum tube with one or more of the following characteristics: non-linear output, non-linear transfer, non-linear input, reverse transfer, and second harmonic generation. Also an emulator with a second output to emulate a phase splitter, a semiconductor emulator of a cathode follower, and a compressor emulating the effects of a power supply droop and screen grid behavior are disclosed.
