Abstract
Improved slew recovery in a composite driving amplifier for driving a substantially reactive load including a feedback loop to the operational amplifier from the load for regulating the output of the amplifier, the composite amplifier has a predetermined resistance R1 in the feedback loop and includes a second feedback loop having a predetermined resistance R2. The second feedback loop extends from the output of the operational amplifier to the negative input and is substantially parallel with the first-mentioned feedback loop. To maximize the recovery of the amplifier from a slew condition, the relationship of R1-R2 should be as follows: ##EQU1## wherein: V.sub.o is the output voltage in the amplifier.
