[sdiy] exponential converters

Hmmm... so far as I know, there isn't a commercially available one chip
solution. There are chips with exponential VCOs on them (the CEM 3374 and
3340; not currently in production but still available from Synthtech.com).
You could also look at some of the many VCO schematics on SDIY member sites,
but as I recall, none of these has a one chip solution for exponential
conversion. Still, the circuitry there might help you cook up your own
converter circuit. Here are a few links:
