Abstract

Disclosed is an automatic control circuit for a device comprising at least one transistor mounted as a current source. To achieve the automatic control of its mean off-load voltage at a given level, this circuit includes an automatic control of the voltage Vgs of said transistor by a follower-shifter circuit; wherein the control of the shift voltage of the follower circuit is accomplished by the charge from a capacitor, wherein the capacitor is charged, in a calibrating step, by shifter circuit looped to the capacitor, through a switch control by a clock.
