Abstract

In the present method of measuring the current of a first current source, the current thereof may be combined with either the current of a second current source, or the current of a third current source. Based on a combination of the current of the first current source and either (a) the current of the second current source or (b) the current of the third current source, a digital output is provided. If this digital output is of a first value, the state of combining the current of the first current source with the current of the second current source becomes in effect. If this digital output is of a second value, the state of combining the current of the first current source with the current of the second current source becomes in effect.
