Problems solved by technology

[0013] 1) As the temperature changes, the bias current provided to the bandgap voltage generating circuit usually changes, resulting in inaccurate final output reference voltage
[0014] 2) The circuit design itself will cause poor compensation accuracy due to mismatch;
[0015] 3) The actual bandgap reference high-order temperature compensation accuracy is poor due to too rough theoretical approximation results of some circuits

[0121] The preferred embodiment 2 of the present invention is an improvement based on the preferred embodiment 1. For parts not mentioned in this embodiment, reference may be made to the corresponding content in the first embodiment.

[0122] After the above-mentioned temperature compensation of the base current correction resistor, the output voltage Vref obtained has a parabolic linear variation trend with a downward curvature, and already has a lower temperature drift coefficient. In order to further improve the temperature drift tendency of the output voltage Vref under high temperature and low temperature conditions, it is considered to add a curvature compensation module in the circuit to compensate Vref. The proposed curvature compensation method adopts the idea of ​​dynamic adjustment, and continuously adjusts the magnitude of the compensation current Ico by monitoring the change of the positive temperature coefficient voltage VPTAT (proportional to absolute temperature...
