Basically I was thinking about a system where the output voltage was
limited to, say, 4.5V by means of a series resistor & precision zener
/ TL431 etc. This would then be independent of supply voltage but
subject to any temperature drift in the clamping device. The minimum
voltage would be close to zero - if you need it to be 0.5V, then you'd
need to add it in - use an opamp circuit to provide the clamping
function with a 0.5V offset.?
