A system and method are disclosed for maintaining an output voltage of a constant current source circuit. A constant current source circuit is provided that comprises a voltage regulator, a first feedback loop and a second feedback loop that are connected to the voltage regulator, and a sample and hold circuit that is connected to the second feedback loop. The voltage regulator regulates an output voltage VOUT to a reference voltage VREF using a first feedback voltage signal FB on the first feedback loop. The sample and hold circuit samples and holds a second feedback voltage signal VFB from the second feedback loop while the first feedback loop is connected. The voltage regulator regulates an output voltage VOUT to the second feedback reference voltage signal VFB when the first feedback loop is disconnected.
