Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although this circuit is capable of providing a temperature insensitive reference voltage, it has the disadvantage of somewhat having the effect of voltage noise on the generated reference voltage
This makes it difficult to implement circuits that can minimize both noise effects
[0006] Therefore, there are some issues related to generating a voltage reference with low noise impact

Abstract

A low noise voltage reference circuit is described. The reference circuit utilizes a bandgap reference component and may include at least one of a current shunt or filter to reduce high and low noise contributions to the output. Further modifications may include a curvature correction component.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a voltage reference circuit based on a band gap, in particular to a voltage reference with very low noise. Background technique [0002] Voltage references are widely used in electronic circuits, especially in analog circuits where an electrical signal must be compared to a standard signal that remains stable over changing environmental conditions. The most hostile environmental factor for circuits on a chip is temperature. A reference voltage based on the bandgap principle consists of the sum of two voltages that vary inversely with temperature. The first voltage corresponds to a forward-biased PN junction having a voltage drop of about 2.2 mV / ° C. inversely to absolute temperature (CTAT, complementary to absolute temperature). A voltage proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT) is generated by amplifying the base-emitter voltage difference of two bipolar transistors operating at different collector current densities. A f...
