Regulated current sources of a type comprising first and second transistors of complementary conductivity types having respective input and output electrodes, the output electrode of each direct coupled to the input electrode of the other to complete a regenerative feedback loop tending to increase conduction in both transistors. The increased conduction of the second transistor is sensed by the input circuit of an amplifier exhibiting increasing gain for increased signal sensed by its input circuit. The output circuit of this amplifier is connected to the input electrode of the second transistor to complete a degenerative feedback loop which counteracts the regenerative feedback loop at prescribed current levels to establish the level of current regulation.
