A current source is provided according to the present invention. The
current source includes N current sources configured in a parallel
arrangement, wherein N is at least two. Each of the N current sources
includes a respective control input. The current source also includes M
delay elements. An mth one of the M delay elements includes an input in
communication with an m-1th one of the M delay elements. M is equal to
N-1, and an output of the mth one of the M delay elements is arranged in
communication with the control input of an m+1th one of the N current
sources.
