A method is provided for the electronic processing of analog signals in thermaltronic device. The method accepts an analog input signal, e.g., an AC signal, at a thermaltronic device input and generates a thermal electric (TE) temperature having a first transfer function responsive to the input signal. As opposed to having a digital response, the transfer function is either linear or logarithmic. An analog output signal, e.g., an AC signal, is generated having a second transfer function responsive to the TE, which is likewise either linear or logarithmic.
