Jan 10 at 21:56 comment added Surprised Seagull idea is to use inductors, capacitors and diodes, as they can be considered close to ideal and cheap. Opamps have a lot of limitations. I understand that I can make any signal with OpAmps, but then im limited in frequency, voltage, current, efficiency, cost, temperature and many more. If there is no solution without OpAmps, then so be it, I wont follow this path.
Jan 10 at 20:02 comment added Stefan Wyss You could build very complex circuits with only L‘s and C‘s, but you need at least one diode for the non-linear part of the system response. Would you also accept active components like OpAmps?
Jan 10 at 17:56 comment added Surprised Seagull That technically answers the question, so I will accept it. But is there a similar way that dissipates less energy? Without the loss on the resistor being the main source of asymmetry of the waveform
