current from LEM ultrastab is transduced to voltage using a shunt and a diffamp. A error signal is generated by adding a iverted set signal. This error signal is fed into two PIDs. PID A has A Sample and hold option which works as follows: the PID output is fed into the S&H circuit, once activated the S&H outputs a constant voltage which was previously the PID output signal. At the same time the difference between this constant voltage and the actual PID output voltage is fed as a new error signal to the PID input.

Up to now only PID A is populated (exept D) after Hacking the logic at the S&H IC, it works as expected. after switching in hold mode, the current seems to be a bit lower than the initial setpoint. this might be caused by the big hold capacitor. Maybe after 0.5 sec. it is not entirely loaded. The hold time seems to be huge, after 30s there is almost no change visible, seems to be a fraction of a Millivolt. So it might be an option to change the Cap to a smaller one, leading to a smaller hold time, but a more precise hold value.
The idea of having the current on for a longer time before switching to hold mode didn't really help, so it doesn't seem to be an problem related to the loading curve of the hold cap. after a hold time of ~4 minutes, the current monitor voltage dropped from ~39.6 mV to 39 mV.
