Last time we looked at Spice models of a current sink. We didn’t look at some of the problems involved with a simple sink, and for many practical applications, they are perfectly adequate. However, ...

For applications that require or desire a computer controlled variable current, the use of a digitally controlled potentiometer and a current mirror with degeneration provides a low cost solution. One ...

ON Semiconductor, a premier supplier of high performance silicon solutions for energy efficient electronics, has introduced the CAT2300 current mirror with switch controller, that when combined with ...

Over on his YouTube channel [Aaron Danner] explains biasing transistors with current sources in the 29th video of his Transistors Series. In this video, he shows how to replace a bias resistor (and ...

Circuit and system design requirements often mean compromises. For example, optoisolators are used almost everywhere, but they are highfrequency limited. This simple circuit allows for wider bandwidth ...
