Abstract
An apparatus for regulating a temperature of an object to a desired temperature includes a feedback circuit operable to produce a feedback error signal based on a difference of the desired temperature of the object and the temperature of the object; and a heating circuit operable to impart heat to the object as a substantially linear function of a command signal, the command signal being based on the feedback error signal.
