Abstract
Ultrasound imaging instruments and other "radar" type systems frequently employ variable gain amplifiers to effectively process signals of high dynamic range. One such device uniquely suited for this task is the logarithmic amplifier. Presented in this paper are many of the key design issues and solutions concerning the enhancement of one particular company's ultrasound system.
