Abstract:
A current mirror, comprising:a first output transistor having a gate, a first source/drain terminal and a second source/drain terminal and having a first threshold voltage, wherein the first source/drain terminal of the first output transistor is coupled to a first potential node; anda second output transistor having a gate, a first source/drain terminal and a second source/drain terminal and having a second threshold voltage, wherein the first source/drain terminal of the second output transistor is coupled to the second source/drain terminal of the first output transistor and the second source/drain terminal of the second output transistor is coupled to a second potential node, further wherein the second threshold voltage is higher than the first threshold voltage, the gate of the first output transistor is coupled to the gate of the second output transistor, and at least one of the first and second output transistors receives a body bias.
