Hi everybody,
As part of my research at UCSD, we are trying to measure Hall resistance of some materials. And to do that we need to send an AC current. So I wondered how we could easily build an ac current source, probably based on op-amp. I know there is the Howland circuit (current pump), but I am not sure it can be used to get an AC current as well.
The specifications of the current we need are the following: constant ~µA RMS, frequency range ~1kHz, sine wave. The impedance of the material we are testing is about ~mΩ.
Thank you for your help.
