Improved Howland Current PumpIL Accuracy Circuit RT allows for trim to optimum ZOUT and improved DC Accuracy Ideal Op Amp
Improved Howland Current PumpV-I DC Accuracy Calculations 1% Resistors (w/RT=0) could yield only 9% Accuracy at T=25°C Still useful for V-I control in Motors/Valves V-Torque Control Outer position feedback adjusts V for final position
Improved Howland AC Analysis RI RF Op Amp sees differential [(-IN) – (+IN)] feedback b=b- -b+ (Must be positive number else oscillation!)
Improved Howland 1/b CalculationNo Load & Full Load Change in RO from No Load to Full Load has no significant impact on the 1/b Plot
