description A circuit having a nonlinear response characteristic provides gamma compensation to a video luminance signal and matches any desired output response curve by selecting the number of diodes connected as series-connected circuits in the compensation circuit. The relationship among the various numbers of series-connected diodes is dependent upon having a current flowing into an output circuit which is the same as a current flowing out of a collector circuit of a differential amplifier, to which the input video luminance signal is applied, and through series-connected diode circuit. These currents are maintained equal by use of a current-mirror circuit, which provides an input current to an output transistor that has in its emitter circuit one of the series-connected diode circuits, and the compensated luminance signal flows in the collector circuit thereof. The differential amplifier is stabilized and balanced by a difference amplifier connected in feedback across the collector leads of the differential amplifier in conjunction with a pedestal clamping synchronization signal and a capacitor to provide a balancing signal at the base lead of the second transistor of the differential transistor amplifier.
