Bandgap reference circuit

A bandgap reference circuit includes a current-voltage mirror circuit having first, second, third, and fourth nodes, a transistor having a current path coupled between a source of supply voltage and the first node, a current mirror portion having an input coupled to the first node and a control term...

Zusammenfassung:A bandgap reference circuit includes a current-voltage mirror circuit having first, second, third, and fourth nodes, a transistor having a current path coupled between a source of supply voltage and the first node, a current mirror portion having an input coupled to the first node and a control terminal coupled to the fourth node, a serially coupled first resistor and first diode coupled between the output of the current mirror portion and ground, a serially coupled second resistor and second diode coupled between the third node and ground, a third diode coupled between the second node and ground, and a differential amplifier having a first input coupled to the fourth node, a second input coupled to the output of the current mirror portion for generating a bandgap reference voltage, and an output coupled to the gate of the transistor.
