good morning first of all.

well, to make this kind of circuit, u just have to adjust the resistors as well as the current flow in the circuit to produce the require current..

it's easy..

I assume that you are using a single supply and came up with a short article that has a nice description and a simple design: "Voltage-To-Current Converter Works From A Single-Supply Rail" at: http://www.elecdesign.com/Articles/ArticleID/2985/2985.html

Hope it helps.

try looking at kele, they have this type of supplys,, i have had to convert the same deal for inputs/outputs on a controler,, i think the web site is kele.com and the price's are very reasonable,, (for that type of stuff), its been a bit since i installed it,, but i think it was a transducer,, if cant find,, and in the us,, the ph # is 888-397-5353,, and they have good tech assistance,, and will sell to the common persons,, good luck,,,

have a great day, and make it fun
