Abstract: The current mirror is core structure of all most all analog and mixed mode circuits and the performance of analog structures largely depends on their characteristics. In this paper first we study the simple current mirror, cascode current mirror and different low voltage current mirror topology and study the literature survey advantage and disadvantage. Second we study , analysis and design of convention regulated cascode current mirror, regulated cascade current mirror, wide output swing regulated cascade current mirror and wide input output swing regulated cascode current mirror and simulate Tanner EDA tool T-SPICE 0.18μm CMOS technology. Presented analysis low voltage current mirror input characteristic, output characteristics high output swing capability and wide input and wide output swing capabilities, suitable for low voltage operation and minimum power dissipation.
