An enhanced current mirror can be utilized to accurately control a bias current associated with an amplifier. A current controller component (CCC) can employ the enhanced current mirror and can be associated with the amplifier. The CCC can comprise a comparator that can compare an adjusted supply voltage level to a reference voltage level, the adjusted supply voltage level relating to a supply voltage level of a supply voltage supplied to the amplifier and CCC. The CCC can control switching of an operational state of a transistor of the comparator to switch in or out a resistance of a reference resistor component associated with the supply voltage, based on a result of the comparison of the adjusted supply voltage level to the reference voltage level, to facilitate accurately controlling an amount of bias current associated with the amplifier. The CCC and amplifier can be situated on the same die.
