Piecewise linearly compensated CMOS bandgap voltage reference

Abstract

The invention discloses a segmented linear compensated CMOS band gap reference voltage source, characterized in that it comprises IPTAT current generation part, ICTAT current generation part, low temperature segment compensation current ICL generation part and high temperature segment compensation current ICH generation part. On the basis of traditional first-order curvature compensation, it divides the whole temperature range into high, medium and low temperature segments, compensates output voltage in each temperature range respectively and makes the output voltage have multiple local extremum points in the whole temperature range to achieve the segmented compensation purpose, so as to effectively improve the temperature characteristics of output voltage reference, reduce temperature coefficients and improve accuracy of output voltage. Besides, it can change amplitude of output voltage by regulating resistor ratio value, relatively flexible to use. The whole circuit has low power consumption and occupies smaller chip area.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bandgap reference voltage source circuit, in particular to a CMOS bandgap reference voltage source with piecewise linear compensation. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, the power supply voltage introduced from the outside of the chip has certain fluctuations, and the analog circuit has higher requirements for the stability of the bias voltage. Therefore, in the analog circuit, we generally use a reference voltage source, which will power the power supply. The voltage is converted into a voltage with good voltage stability and temperature stability, which provides a good bias for other parts of the circuit. [0003] The voltage reference circuit is widely used in high-precision analog and digital-analog hybrid circuits, such as readout circuits, high-precision comparators, (A / D, D / A) converters, Voltage regulator, and DC / DC converter, etc. In the digital-to-analog converter, the DAC selects and generates analog outp...
