Abstract
A regulated voltage supply (10) for delivering a substantially constant voltage to a load (12) having a regulator (24) for controlling a raw voltage supply (22) to deliver that constant potential, wherein the supply includes sense leads (28 and 30) between the load and the regulator for monitoring load voltage, provided with a sense current cancellation circuit (30) for nulling sense current and preventing it from flowing through the sense leads; in a preferred implementation, including voltage-to-current converters (42 and 44) bridging respectively the output terminals (14 and 16) and the sense terminals (32 and 34), it provides a cancellation current equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the sense current.
