ABSTRACT:
An analog reading circuit having a current mirror circuit forcing two identical currents into a cell to be read and into a reference cell. An operational amplifier has an inverting input connected to the drain terminal of the cell to be read, a non-inverting input connected to the drain terminal of the reference cell, and an output connected to the gate terminal of the reference cell. The reference cell therefore forms part of a negative feedback loop which maintains the overdrive voltages of the cell to be read and the reference cell constant, irrespective of temperature variations. The reading circuit is also of high precision and has a high reading speed.
