An accurate, wideband, voltage squaring circuit suitable for
use aboard a spacecraft has been designed, built, and evaluated. The
device is based upon the theory of piecewise linear synthesis.
A relatively simple scheme for converting analog information to
digital form has been fully developed and partially evaluated. It is
particularly suited for pulsed systems where the duration between
pulses is such that very rapid conversion is not necessary.
