4.3Current Gain Control (CGC)
The Raven amplifier is equipped with Current Gain Control (CGC) for improved performance of low induction motors. Connecting pin J2/5 to J2/4 reduces the gain of the current loop, thus enabling the use of low inductance motors without the insertion of an additional inductor. The default (pin J2/5 left open) is high gain.
Shorting this pin to the circuit common pin (J2/4) reduces the proportional gain (P) of the current loop by approx. 70%.
For permanent selection, a simple short is recommended. For remote selection, the following scheme should be used.

The following table should be used for calculating minimum inductance values.
