ABSTRACT:
A circuit configured to be programmed using a resistor includes an output terminal, a reference voltage source, a first circuit, and a current mirror arrangement. The output terminal is configured to be connected to a programming resistor. The reference voltage source is configured to generate a reference voltage on the output terminal. The measurement and evaluation circuit is configured to detect an output current on the output terminal, and to generate a control signal which is dependent on the output current. The current mirror arrangement is coupled to an output current path containing the output terminal and provides a reference current which is dependent on the output current and the control signal.
