Another option is to use any old cheap by not very linear core and then use
digital to linearise it. This could even be a parameter "how analog do you
want it?" and only partially correct for the linearity.

   Another option is to use any old cheap by not very linear core and then
   use digital to linearise it. This could even be a parameter "how analog
   do you want it?" and only partially correct for the linearity.
