the reference current will be equal to the input current. For
this reason, the DC impedance of the reference voltage
source must be kept low enough to prevent linearity errors.
For linearity of 0.01%, a reference impedance of 200
less is recommended. A 0.1 F bypass capacitor should be
connected from V
