Abstract

A circuit for increasing the inductance of a transformer as used in a telephone line circuit. An operational amplifier with appropriate feedback is connected across a separate winding of the transformer to provide the reactive inductance. To compensate for changes in resistance of the winding, a field effect transistor is controlled by the same amplifier output to provide a positive resistance in the feedback path and thus maintain balance.
