<p>A high speed ramp generator is presented. The high speed ramp generator is advantageous over the prior art because it provides a ramp response without the delay incident with a simple integrator approach. A closed loop system generates a continuous ramp and, in an open loop manner, subtracts a mirror of the current ramp from itself. A switch is provided which when open, triggers an immediate current ramp output that is not dependent on the amplifier or any other component of prior art feedback circuits. Two such ramp generators may be used in tandem to provide alternating portions of a precision ramp signal, such as may be used to cancel the magnetization current induced in the primary of an isolation transformer.</p> |
