ABSTRACT:
A circuit arrangement for supplying a constant current which is stabilized against temperature variations. The constant current is produced by a current source which is controlled by a control stage in which a first control current is supplied to each of a first and a second resistor, at least one of which is trimmable. The first control current is controlled so that the difference between the voltages produced thereby across the first and second resistors is in a first predetermined ratio to the constant voltage produced by a reference voltage source. The current source is controlled by the control stage so that the constant current produced thereby is in a second predetermined ratio to the first control currents.
