Abstract
An auto-range current mirror circuit has a current sensing circuit, a front and rear stage current mirrors each has an adjustable amplifying rate. The current sensing circuit presets a threshold current and has an input current of the front stage current mirror. The current sensing current compares the input current with a threshold current and then outputs a controlling signal to the front and rear stage current mirrors to adjust a suitable amplifying rate. Therefore, a bias current of the rear stage current mirror is amplified by the suitable amplifying rate to improve the quality of output current of the rear stage current mirror.
