Abstract
An electronic circuit. The electronic circuit includes a first circuit leg coupled to a first supply voltage node and a second supply voltage node. The first circuit leg includes a first reference current circuit configured to produce a first reference current and a second reference current circuit configured to produce a second reference current. The electronic circuit further includes a second circuit leg coupled in parallel with the first circuit leg. The second circuit leg includes a first transistor coupled to form a current mirror with the first reference current circuit and a second transistor coupled to form a current mirror with the second reference current circuit. The source terminals of each of the first and second transistors are coupled together to form a third supply voltage node.
