Elbert, in this case the LM317 is possibly the ideal solution, it�s cheap and you can get it where ever I believe.

Hello Friedel, The circuit does not have to be fast, I want to use it as a powersupply, delivering 1.8V, 3.3V or 5V with a current of 200mA (cont.), and a current limit at 250mA. Voltage depends on the connected application. The chip I want to use can switch between the 3 voltages, but can source 60mA max., which is to less for my application. Kind regards, Elbert Smit. > > Elbert, you have tell us a little more of what this circuit > need to do, like bandwidth, switching speed, voltages, what > it is for, etc. if you need simply a limited current source, > check out what a LM317 can do for you.
