I already have the front-end of the design: a 2.5 V supply (VDD) feeding a precision VREF that, through a 1 kΩ–2 kΩ resistor, sets up an IREF that can vary between about 180 µA and 400 µA. The next stage is where I need your help. I want to create matched positive and negative copies of that current so that a downstream capacitor can charge and then discharge once it reaches defined limits. My intention is to explore different charge/discharge thresholds in the built-in SPICE simulator that ships with KiCad 10, so the schematic must be ready for immediate simulation in that environment. I can tell you what comparitor works in this voltage and speed. Key points you should address • Implement the mirrors with MOSFETs, using both N-channel and P-channel devices as needed for accuracy across the full IREF range. Other solutions acceptable. Need to be fast for simulation. • Keep the topology simple and component values practical for 2.5 V operation. • Include any biasing networks, reference nets, or start-up paths the mirrors require so they function reliably in transient and DC sweeps. • Provide the KiCad .kicad_sch file plus a ready-to-run SPICE test bench that plots capacitor voltage and mirrored currents over time. • Clearly annotate the nodes so I can tweak resistor values and transistor sizes later. Acceptance check 1. A single KiCad schematic opens without errors. 2. Running the included SPICE profile produces two traces: +I_MIRROR and –I_MIRROR that track IREF to within ±3 % across 180 µA–400 µA. 3. The capacitor voltage shows linear and clean charge/discharge transitions when currents switch. 4. All symbols and models are from KiCad’s default SPICE libraries or are supplied with clear installation steps. I have an opamp library thats been validated on this circuit voltage and switching speed. Must be rail-to-rail operations. That’s the full scope—once I have a working file set I can iterate from there.

Hello, I understand you already have the VREF and IREF generation stage working from a 2.5 V supply, and now need a KiCad 10 SPICE-ready schematic that generates matched positive and negative mirror currents for controlled capacitor charge/discharge behavior. The focus is accurate current mirroring across the 180 µA–400 µA range, clean transient switching, rail-to-rail compatibility, and a simulation setup that is stable, simple, and easy to modify later. I can design the current mirror stage using matched NMOS/PMOS topologies optimized for low-voltage 2.5 V operation, including proper biasing, startup handling, and SPICE-compatible models for reliable DC and transient analysis. The deliverable will include a complete .kicad_sch file, ready-to-run SPICE testbench, labeled nodes, parameterized transistor sizing, and capacitor charge/discharge plots showing +I_MIRROR and –I_MIRROR tracking IREF within the required tolerance. I can also integrate your validated rail-to-rail comparator/op-amp model into the switching stage if needed. I’m comfortable working directly within KiCad’s simulation environment and can structure the schematic so future tuning of thresholds, resistor values, capacitor sizes, and transistor geometry is straightforward. Once you share the comparator details and any preferred MOSFET models, I can begin building and validating the simulation quickly. Thanks, Asif

Dear Client, The biggest risk in this project is not creating positive and negative current mirrors in KiCad SPICE. It is building a simulation that appears stable at one operating point but becomes inaccurate, nonlinear, or unstable once the current range, capacitor switching, and transient behavior interact in the full circuit. That is where practical analog simulation experience matters. I would approach this by: 1. reviewing the existing VREF/IREF stage and operating conditions to identify risks in MOSFET matching, compliance range, startup behavior, rail limitations, and transient switching accuracy 2. designing a clean current mirror topology optimized for 2.5 V operation with stable charge/discharge behavior, practical device sizing, and simulation-ready SPICE integration inside KiCad 10 3. validating transient and DC sweep performance so the delivered schematic produces repeatable mirrored-current accuracy and clean capacitor charge/discharge waveforms immediately after opening the project ✅ Quick Questions: 1. Which comparator/op-amp model would you like integrated into the simulation environment? 2. What capacitor range are you expecting for the charge/discharge timing tests? Message me and I’ll outline the cleanest first step so this moves toward a stable and tunable simulation platform—not just another schematic that partially works under limited conditions.

Hi, Yes, this is well within my scope. I can create a KiCad 10-ready schematic and SPICE testbench that generates matched positive and negative current mirrors from your 180–400 µA IREF source and verifies capacitor charge/discharge behavior. I’ve previously worked on low-voltage analog/SPICE designs involving current mirrors, rail-to-rail operation, comparator-controlled switching, and USB/power mixed-signal systems, including optimization for ngspice convergence and transient stability. Typical turnaround for a project like this is about 2–4 days depending on tuning requirements for matching accuracy and switching behavior. A couple quick questions: - What capacitor range and switching frequency are you targeting? - Should the comparator hysteresis/control logic also be included in the simulation bench? Looking forward to working with you. Thank you, Ihor
