ABSTRACT:
A constant current circuit in which a bias voltage of a field effect transistor is set includes a bias circuit which sets, as the bias voltage, a gate-source voltage VGS′ corresponding to an intersecting point between an ID- VGScharacteristic curve at arbitrary first temperature and an ID-VGScharacteristic curve at arbitrary second temperature which is different from the first temperature in the ID-VGScharacteristic of the drain current IDto a gate-source voltage VGSof the field effect transistor. The bias circuit is comprised of a plurality of semiconductor resistors having substantially similar temperature coefficients so as to be able to transmit heat to each other.
