AD680
Figure 6 displays the characteristics of the AD680 output ampli-
fier driving a 0 mA to 10 mA load. Longer settling times will re-
sult if the reference is forced to sink any transient current.
In some applications, a varying load may be both resistive and
capacitive in nature, or the load may be connected to the
AD680 by a long capacitive cable.
