<p>A description is given of a circuit arrangement for producing a D.C. current, comprising a current-source stage, which is supplied on one input with a measuring current led via an input resistor, and which comprises a current source transistor whose base-emitter path is arranged in parallel with the input resistor and whose collector electrode forms an output of the current-source stage, on which output an output current is offered, a current mirror stage for mirror-inverting the output current of the current-source stage to a working impedance, on which working impedance a control voltage is produced in response to this output current, a current bank having a control input which is supplied with a control voltage, and having at least two outputs simultaneously controlled by the control voltage, on which outputs mutually proportional currents are offered of which a first current forms the measuring current. As a result, a current reference is created which can be used for very low supply voltages, preferably around 0.9 volt, is simple, shows a stable operating behavior and produces a reference current that has a negative temperature coefficient.</p> |
