<p>A drive circuit (10) comprises a plurality of current mirrors (50, 60, 70) connected in series at their output-current end with a load resistor (15) between two power rails (11, 12). The input halves (51, 61, 71) of the mirrors are driven by respective groups of series-connected input transistors (53-56, 63-65, 73-74), the lowest transistor (56, 65, 74) in each group serving to set up the required currents in the mirrors in response to an input voltage (13) on its base. Two potential dividers (90, 80) set up potentials on the control terminals of the groups of input transistors, on the one hand, and potentials on the main-terminal junctions of the mirror output transistors, on the other, such that at no time does any transistor in the circuit experience a voltage greater than its rated voltage. <IMAGE></p> |
