Abstract
Current source embodiments are provided which generate an output current pulse whose initial and terminal slew rates are enhanced with initial and terminal generators that respectively provide an initial current pulse at initiation of the command signal and a terminal current pulse at termination of the command signal. Current source embodiments also include a correction generator that inserts correction currents to substantially correct Lambda current errors in the current sources.
