Re: lowering Zout, paralleling or feedback

Hi, Martin -

Positive current feedback basically measures the current through the load (usually by sensing the voltage across a low value resistor in series with the load) and typically adds this voltage, suitably scaled, to the input signal in some manner. One has to be a bit careful when employing positive current feedback, because too much will give the amplifier a negative output impedance characteristic which is not usually desirable and more yet may degrade amplifier transient response and risk large scale oscillations into loads that have low impedance minima.
