Abstract

An improved current mirror circuit. The current mirror circuit includes a current mirror base network, a current source transistor, and an error transistor. The current mirror base network includes a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal. The first terminal is connected to the current source transistor through a first impedance element. The second terminal is connected to the error transistor. The third terminal is connected to a first bias voltage source, and the first terminal is connected to a second bias voltage source.
