Abstract

A current compensating bias generator generates a current which follows voltage. The current compensating bias generator has a bias generator circuit for generating a current. A current compensating circuit is coupled to the bias generator circuit for changing a value of the current as a voltage input to the current compensating bias generator is changed. A resistive ladder circuit is coupled to the current compensating circuit for setting a voltage level trip point for the current compensating circuit at which the current compensating circuit is used to change the value of the current.
