Abstract:
The present invention provides a current source comprising a first bias current control element, the first bias current control element being configured to generate a first current if the control value is lower than a reference value and configured to generate a second current if the control value equal to or higher than the reference value. In addition or alternatively the bias current source comprises a second bias current control element, the second bias current control element being configured to generate a third current if the control value is lower than or equal to the reference value and configured to generate a fourth current if the control value is higher than the reference value. Furthermore, the present invention provides an integrated circuit and a method.
