Abstract: Programmable monolithic integrated circuit current mirrors configured as either current sources or current sinks include mixed MOS and bipolar technology on a substrate, wherein the master and slave elements each include a silicon-based emitter resistor having a positive temperature coefficient matched to the negative temperature coefficient of the V.sub.be of an associated bipolar transistor, for making the ratios of the master element current to the individual slave element currents substantially insensitive to dynamic temperature gradients produced in the associated substrate. Each slave is independently and individually compensated.
