Abstract

Abstract The circuit controlling the motor which actuates a control potentiometer or the like is made up of operational amplifiers and resistors connected so that, at stall, the feedback loop is not effective and the feedback loop is effective only when the motor is turning, which provides the desired rate feedback for servo damping.
