APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
PROGRAMMABLE CURRENT SOURCE CIRCUIT
The DAC8805 can be integrated into the circuit in Figure 44 to implement an improved Howland current pump
for precise V/I conversions. Bidirectional current flow and high-voltage compliance are two features of the circuit.
With a matched resistor network, the load current of the circuit is shown by Equation 3:
ILA/B
=
(R2 + R3) /

(3)
The value of R3 in the previous equation can be reduced to increase the output current drive of U3. U3 can drive
±20mA in both directions with voltage compliance limited up to 15V by the U3 voltage supply. Elimination of the
circuit compensation capacitor (C1) in the circuit is not suggested as a result of the change in the output
impedance (ZO), according to Equation 4:
ZO
+
R1ÈR3(R1)R2)
R1(R2È)R3È) * R1È(R2)R3)
(4)
As shown in Equation 4, ZO with matched resistors is infinite and the circuit is optimum for use as a current
source. However, if unmatched resistors are used, ZO is positive or negative with negative output impedance
being a potential cause of oscillation. Therefore, by incorporating C1 into the circuit, possible oscillation problems
are eliminated. The value of C1 can be determined for critical applications; for most applications, however, a
value of several pF is suggested.
