An integrated LED driving device for multiple LED strings which employs a single linear regulator or other controller and a multiple-output current mirror which is almost independent of the DC input voltage source, almost independent of the transistor's or MOSFET's variations from the semiconductor integration process, and almost independent of temperature variation. The multiple-output current mirror includes a plurality of transistors or MOSFETs each of which are integrated on the same substrate, with identical width-to-length channel ratios and with identical source and gate connections. The integrated LED driving device provides for automatic current sharing in a DC mode and, alternately, with minimized phase delays in a PWM mode. The mirror-output current mirror may include mirror-cascade transistor pairs.
