However, although the structure of the bandgap reference circuit 30 can use the current mirror method to remove the tail current source in the transconductance operational amplifier, the minimum required system voltage VDD is reduced by a voltage V DS =0.2V, but still need to lock the input voltage V using the transconductance op amp 200 IN+ with V IN- , and with resistor R 1 ', R 2 'Balance resistor R 1 , R 2 current, so it still has the disadvantages of the bandgap reference circuit 10 architecture

[0021] From the above, it can be known that the known bandgap reference circuit for low system voltage operation uses the known transconductance operational amplifier architecture to lock the voltage to generate a positive temperature coefficient current, and needs to balance the circuit that generates a negative temperature coefficient current with an additional resistor, so the circuit more complicated structure
