Problems solved by technology

Among the existing methods for reducing the flicker noise of the reference source, the Chinese patent CN101630173 provides a way to reduce the flicker noise by periodically switching between the strong inversion region and the cut-off region of the MOS transistor, and the U.S. patents US6160274, US6514825 and US6653679 uses special process steps or materials to manufacture low-flicker noise transistors different from mainstream CMOS processes, but these methods all pay the price of increasing the complexity of circuit design or process processing

Abstract

The invention discloses a low-voltage reference source with low flicker noise and high power-supply suppression. The low-voltage reference source comprises a starting circuit, a self-cascaded operational amplifier, a temperature coefficient compensating circuit and a reference output-level circuit, wherein the self-cascaded structures; and the self-cascaded the low-voltage reference source, the power-supply suppression is improved and the flicker noise is reduced at the same time; an input metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) pipe in the operational amplifier is a primary MOS pipe, so that the flicker noise is further reduced and voltage redundancy is saved in a low-voltage circuit at the same time; and after the temperature coefficient compensating circuit is expanded into a high-level temperature coefficient compensating circuit, the change of reference source output voltage with the temperature is further reduced and the stability of the reference source output voltage is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of integrated circuit design, in particular to a voltage reference source with high power supply rejection ratio and low flicker noise working at low voltage, and the design is realized based on CMOS technology. Background technique [0002] The reference source is an indispensable module in analog integrated circuits and mixed-signal integrated circuits. It is widely used in low-dropout regulators, switching power supplies, data converters, etc. These circuits generally require that the output of the reference source does not vary with temperature and power supply voltage. Variety. The current mainstream reference sources all use the thermal voltage V T The positive temperature coefficient of the bipolar transistor (triode) and the base-emitter V BE Compensate the negative temperature coefficient of the voltage to achieve a lower temperature coefficient, and at the same time, other technologies can be added to perf...
