-
- its the Vbe TC that is used.
-
- on the lm334,
- it's the IC, and an external diode for the TC equalizing (if you use the example circuit later on to
- balance the TC)

- on the patent
-
- figure 3 is the basic example.
-
- fig 1 omits the current mirror.
-
- figure 3 is described in the details section of the patent
-
- figure 4 or 5 has additional balancing.

-
- todo: build figure 20, and test to see what kind of current lowering I can get
-
-
- todo: build transistor only circuit of this current source, based on schematic in LM334 data sheet.
- might need multiple emitter transistor EDIT: I don't think so. they aren't common in standalone packages.
- only on ic die. and some are not true multi emitter, but just two bonded leads to the same emitter.

- article in edn covers what bob pease has for a circuit. similar to ti data sheet with transistor, but drives
- constant current for an led
