In Biomedical Applications, as the signals have to be distributed to various circuit elements, the current mirrors are used in biomedical devices. The current mirror is capable of controlling the current in one active device of the circuit by copying the current through another active device and keeps the output current constant regardless of loads. The condition here is to have high output impedance and high gain with a little trade-off between them to drive a large load. For evaluating the performance of the current mirrors, the 3-bit Digital to Analog Converter is used along with current steering thermometer code converter. The designs are verified in P-SPICE Tool by using SPICE Coding. From the results, it is proved that the folded cascade current mirror provides better gain and basic current mirror provides better fan-out
