The image displays a variable constant current source circuit built using the SF741 operational amplifier. This design employs the emitter-base junction of the transistor to function as a 0.7-volt voltage regulator. By adjusting the potentiometer W (22K), the constant current can be controlled within a range of 0.3 to 10 milliamperes. When the constant current is below 6 milliamperes, changing the load resistor R2 from 0 to 1 kilohm results in a variation of the output current I0 by approximately 0.01 milliamperes. The accompanying table provides the relevant implementation data.
As seen in the table, when the potentiometer is set to its minimum resistance, the output current is at its lowest value, and it steadily increases as the resistance is increased. Conversely, at higher resistance values, the output current reaches its maximum limit. For instance, with the potentiometer fully turned down, the output current is around 0.3 milliamperes, while turning it up to its highest setting yields an output current close to 10 milliamperes.
This circuit is particularly useful for applications where precise control over current is required, such as driving light-emitting diodes or testing electronic components. It demonstrates how small adjustments in the circuit's parameters can produce significant changes in the output characteristics. Overall, this design offers a practical solution for creating a controllable constant current source with a wide range of applications.
