Popis: A low noise constant current source used for measuring the $1/f$ noise in disordered systems in ohmic as well as non-ohmic regime is described. The source can supply low noise constant current starting from as low as 1 $\mu$A to a few tens of mA with a high voltage compliance limit of around 20 Volts. The constant current source has several stages which can work in a standalone manner or together to supply the desired value of load current. The noise contributed by the current source is very low in the entire current range. The fabrication of a low noise voltage preamplifier modified for bias dependent noise measurements and based on the existing design available in the MAT04 data sheet is also described.
