A simple, nearly passive technique is described that allows a spacecraft sensor to be driven to a potential close to that of a plasma where the ion concentration exceeds about 100 per cu cm even in the presence of a large vehicle potential. Such a technique may become increasingly useful in the event that compatibility constraints in the Space Shuttle demand a 28-V negative ground spacecraft system.
