Abstract

The present invention provides a temperature-compensating reference voltage generator, including a temperature-compensating voltage divider, or variable voltage generator, for dividing an input reference voltage in order to generate a temperature-compensated output voltage. Preferably included, are a first differential amplifier for amplifying a voltage difference between a first reference voltage and a first feedback voltage in order to output an internal reference voltage, a first voltage divider for generating and outputting a first feedback voltage in response to the temperature-compensated voltage, the first voltage divider further including, two resistive elements for controlling a magnitude of reference voltage. In an embodiment of the present invention, operation of MOS transistors in a weak inversion region compensates for changes in temperature, thereby generating a temperature-independent voltage reference, and thus a temperature-independent power supply voltage, thereby reducing fluctuations in performance of semiconductor devices caused by variations in temperature.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to semiconductor devices. More particularly, the present invention relates to internal reference voltage generators and internal power supply voltage generators in semiconductor devices. Background technique [0002] In conventional semiconductor devices, especially semiconductor memory devices, in order to achieve stable low-power operation, an internal power supply voltage is generated from an external power supply voltage and used as a power supply for each circuit on a chip. For semiconductor devices, the current in a transistor varies with temperature, and thus the performance of circuits having the transistors is subject to fluctuations. For example, during a temperature rise, during a strong inversion, the mobility of carriers in the transistor decreases, thus reducing the current and operating speed in the circuit. [0003] In order to reduce such fluctuations in performance of semicondu...
