Abstract
A linear interpolator is provided that includes differential pairs of transistors biased such that a first input voltage may be multiplied by a factor r wherein 0≦r≦1 and such that a second input voltage may be multiplied by the complement factor (1−r). By combining the multiplied input voltages, a linear interpolation is provided based upon the factor r.

1-16. (canceled)
An analog linear interpolator for interpolating a first input signal and a second input signal according to a factor r, wherein 0≦r≦1, comprising:
- a first multiplier operable to multiply the first input signal by the factor r to provide a first output signal equaling r*(the first input signal);
- and
- a second multiplier operable to multiply the second input signal by a complement factor (1−r) to provide a second output signal equaling (1−r)*(the second input signal).
