If you'v read book or lecture of Allen,might you can find some .
 

Re: current source

The second one has higher output resistance, but worse compliance.
 

Re: current source

If you use the first one, when Vdd change the current will change. If you use a PNP transistor and a resistor connected to the grounded the variation are less, because the transistor absorb part of the variation and the resistor voltage remain quite constant.

thx, for the help guys. Did help me a lot.
