Abstract
A driver amplifier circuit for an electromechanical position translator having two coils of substantially equal inductance and resistance is disclosed. The circuit includes an input for a control voltage representing desired translator position and a reference voltage, a very low value reference resistor series connected between the two coils, differentially driven push pull amplifiers connected to drive the coils, and two equal value feedback resistors connected from the reference resistor to inverting inputs of the amplifiers, whereby absolute magnitude of output voltage equals the input voltage plus twice the reference voltage, and wherein zero differential input volts yields zero current flow through the coils.
