Abstract

The invention discloses a current mirror circuit, which comprises an n-channel metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) tube N1, an NMOS tube N2, an NMOS tube N3 and a p-channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) tube P1, wherein the drain of the NMOS tube N1 is connected with a circuit voltage drain drain (VDD) through a constant current source Ib1, the grid of the NMOS tube N1 is in short-circuit connection with the drain of the NMOS tube N1, the grid of the NMOS tube N1is grounded through a capacitor C2, and the source of the NMOS tube N1 is grounded; the drain of the NMOS tube N2 is connected with the output end through a switch S1, the grid of the NMOS tube N2 is in short-circuit connection with the drain through a capacitor C1, and the source of the NMOS tube N2 is grounded; the drain of the NMOS tube N3 is connected with the circuit voltage drain drain (VDD) through a constant current source Ib2, the grid of the NMOS tube N3 is connected with grids of the NMOS tube N1 and the NMOS tube N2, and the source of the NMOS tube N3 is grounded; and the source of the PMOS tube P1 is connected with the grid of the NMOS tube N1, the grid of the PMOS tube P1 is connected with the drain of the NMOS tube N3 and the drain of the PMOS tube P1 is grounded. According to the current mirror circuit, when the voltage of a node A exceeds a certain value, the current release capacity of the node A is improved by a feedback circuit inside an accelerating circuit to quickly and steadily output current, and time for outputting steady current can be shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of analog integrated circuits, in particular to a current mirror circuit. Background technique [0002] like figure 1 As shown, a commonly used current mirror circuit includes: constant current source Ib1, NMOS transistor N1, NMOS transistor N2 and switch S1. Wherein, the NMOS transistor N1 and the NMOS transistor N2 form a current mirror, and Ib1 is mirrored in a certain proportion to output current Iout, and the switch S1 is used to control whether to output Iout. [0003] When the output current is not needed, S1 is disconnected, and the node C voltage is 0V. When output current is needed, S1 is closed, the voltage of node C rises from 0V to OUTPUT voltage, and NMOS transistor N2 outputs current Iout at the same time. Due to the effect of the parasitic capacitances C1 and C2 of N2, when the voltage of node C rises, the voltage of node A will be pulled up at the same time, causing the current of N2 to be too larg...
