A current generating circuit that includes a first current source that generates a first current having a negative temperature coefficient a second current source that generates a second current having a positive temperature coefficient. A compensation circuit generates a common current using a first transistor that receives the first current and a second transistor formed in a mirroring structure, a third transistor that receives the second current, and a fourth transistor formed in a mirroring structure. In addition, the compensation circuit provides the common current as an output current using a transistor that is formed in at least a pair of mirroring structures.
