Abstract :
A novel hybrid function generator that replaces a servo multiplier previously used in an instrument to measure the length distribution function of a population of cotton fibers is described. The function generator linearizes the output of a photocell by extracting the square root of this signal and displaying the result in digital form as well as producing an analog signal. It has general application as a replacement for analog function generation and multiplication.
