Figure 32. Positive Current Source
The simple high-current sinks, shown Figure 31 and Figure 32,
require the load to float between the power supply and the sink.
Figure 31. Positive Current Sink
In these circuits, the high gain, high CMRR, and low TCVOS of
the OP77 ensure high accuracy.
The high gain and low TCVOS ensure accurate operation with
inputs from microvolts to volts. In Figure 33, the signal always
appears as a common-mode signal to the op amps. The
OP77EZ CMRR of 1 μV/V ensures errors of less than 2 ppm.
