  • Abstract
    Transductors are used as current measuring devices in the main accelerator quadrupole power supply feedback loop and as monitors in the dipole circuit. The development of these transductors is described, starting with the basic series - connected (Kraemer) transductor circuit, and adding the features of biasing and a voltage follower to obtain improved linearity and high slewing rate.
