Abstract :
A detailed analysis of the performance of current copier circuits is presented. These circuits allow the sampling, holding and reproduction of practically identical copies of a current without relying on the matching of circuit elements. The analysis is confirmed both by simulation results and by tests of an experimental MOS IC. Applications of these circuits include signal processors, A/D and D/A converters
