7.2.3 Programmable Current Source For A Grounded Load

Figure 7-7 shows the TLVx888 configured as a programmable current source for a ground referenced load. To achieve single supply operation, a two stage design is employed. The first stage sets a reference current, and the second stage acts as a current mirror with gain. The TLVx888 are used to regulate the current sourced from the transistors in both stages.
