Abstract
Instrumentation driver apparatus, including a main driver, coupled to receive an alternating input signal and having a main circuit structure, which is adapted to generate, in response to the alternating input signal, a main output signal with alternating voltage. The apparatus includes a mirror driver, coupled to receive a direct voltage input and having a mirror circuit structure located in proximity to the main circuit structure, which is adapted to generate a mirror output signal in response to the direct voltage input, such that a variation in an operating condition of the main driver causes a corresponding variation in the mirror output signal. The apparatus further includes a feedback circuit, coupled to receive the mirror output signal, which provides in response to the mirror output signal a feedback stabilization input to the main driver so as to stabilize the main output signal.
