Hi,
Is it OK to use the LT1084 as a current regulator in the following way?

The current value is determined by resistor R1, and it worked fine in LTspice.
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi,
Could you please take care of this case?

I don't have a problem with your circuit. It is possible that the actual hardware may need some capacitance for stability. Usually you test the stability of these current regulator circuits by doing a line transient and making sure the current does not ring too much.
Hi,
I'm thinking of making a 10A constant current circuit with two LT1084s connected in parallel.
The circuit and simulation waveforms are attached.
Is there any problem? Please advice me if anything I'm missing.
