[0002] With the development of microelectronics technology, small electronic devices, such as wearable devices and implantable medical devices, have also developed rapidly, and people's performance requirements for these devices have increased. At the front end of the biological signal, multiple VREFs generated by reference voltage sources are required. The bandgap reference source can provide a DC voltage that is almost unaffected by power supply voltage and temperature changes. It is the core circuit of many analog circuits, digital circuits, and mixed signal circuits. Bandgap reference circuits are usually divided into two structures: voltage mode and current mode. Among them, the voltage mode bandgap reference is usually not lower than 1.2V due to its structural limitations, and cannot be used in low-voltage scenarios. Therefore, when a low reference voltage is required, a current mode bandgap reference is generally used.

[0003] However, for the application scenarios of bandgap reference, the noise and offset of the traditional current-mode bandgap BGR (bandgap reference, reference voltage source) are serious, which has a great impact on the accuracy of the output voltage, which restricts the performance of wearable devices and implantable medical devices. In addition, due to the influence of base current, the collector current of the transistor is not equal, so that the temperature characteristics of the bandgap reference deviate from the ideal situation.

[0113] Specifically, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 , which is the structural diagram of offset and low-frequency noise suppression and a partial small-signal equivalent circuit diagram provided by the embodiments of the present invention. Among them, the left figure is the structural diagram of offset and low-frequency noise suppression based on a current-mode BGR, and the right figure is a partial small-signal equivalent circuit diagram. As Figure 4 shown, the perturbation ΔV O of noise to V n,O is:

[0114]

[0115] To find the feedback coefficient F, it is necessary to find the perturbation of V O noise ΔV O causing the perturbation of V X and V Y . The perturbation received by V Y is conveyed through two paths. First, it is through M3 and Q3 to V Z , and V Z is through Q2 to V Y . The perturbation of V Z is:

[0116]

[0117] where g mp is the transconductance of transistor M 1-3 . The currents flowing through Q1 - Q3 are the same, so they have the same transconductance g mQ . Then, the perturbation of V O by Q2 to V Y is:

[0118]

[0119] R Y is the impedance at the V Y node, R Y = r op / / R1 / / g mQ r oQ R2, r op is the small-signal impedance of transistor g mp is the small-signal impedance of transistor M 1-3 . r oQ is the small-signal impedance of Q1 - Q3. Another perturbation of V O reaches V Y through M2:

[0120] ΔV Y2 = -g mp R Y ΔV O(4)

[0121] Then V Y is perturbed by V O as

[0122]

[0123] V X is also perturbed by V O from two paths. The first path is through V Y and Q1 to convey to V X :

[0124] ΔV X1 =-g mQ R X ΔV Y =g mQ R X g mp R Y ΔV O (6)

[0125] R X is the impedance at the V X node, R X =r op / / r oQ / / R2. V X is perturbed by V O through another path via M1 to convey to V X :

[0126] ΔV X2 =-g mp R X ΔV O (7)

[0127] Then V X is perturbed by V O as

[0128] ΔV X =ΔV X1 +ΔV X2 =g mp R X (g mQ R Y -1)ΔV O (8)

[0129] The feedback coefficient F is

[0130]

[0131] The reference output voltage error V n,REF caused by the low-frequency noise of the error amplifier is

[0132]

[0133] For comparison, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 , which is the related structure diagram of a traditional current-mode BGR. Among them, Figure 4 Figure (a) in is the structure diagram of the traditional current-mode BGR, Figure (b) is the feedback model of the traditional current-mode BGR error amplifier, and Figure (c) is the small-signal equivalent circuit of the traditional current-mode BGR.

[0134] In the traditional current-mode bandgap reference, the feedback coefficient F of the feedback network is:

[0136] The reference output voltage error V OS,EA caused by the input offset voltage V OS,REF of the error amplifier is:

[0137]

[0138] In the formula, A1 is the gain from V O to V REF , then R Y = r op / / R1 / / g mQ r oQ R2 ≈ g mQ r oQ R2.

[0139] Comparing equations (10) and (12), it can be seen that the low-frequency noise of the amplifier of the reference proposed by the present invention on the reference output voltage error is 1 / g mQ R X g mQ R oQ times that of the traditional structure. The analysis of the offset voltage is similar to that of the low-frequency noise, and the equivalent reference voltage will also be greatly reduced. The main reason can be known by comparing equations (9) and (10). The feedback coefficient of the reference core has been greatly improved, thereby reducing the influence of the low-frequency noise and offset voltage of the operational amplifier on the reference output accuracy.

[0140] Furthermore, Kirchhoff's current law is used for the drain terminals of the first core NPN BJT Q3, the second core NPN BJT Q4, and the third core NPN BJT Q5 in the bandgap reference core circuit respectively:

[0141]

[0142] Among them, I DS5,6,7 are respectively the core PMOS transistors M P5, M P6 , M P7 The leakage currents of P6 , P7 , and R are equal due to the current mirror relationship; I R represents the magnitude of the current flowing through R 4,5,6 . Since these resistors have the same resistance value and the same voltage drop across them, the magnitudes of the currents flowing through these resistors are the same. Due to the influence of the base current, the collector currents of the three transistors are not equal, so the temperature characteristics of the bandgap reference deviate from the ideal situation, and it will also cause an increase in the offset of the operational amplifier.

[0143] Based on this, the base current compensation circuit including the left and right parts is designed in this embodiment. Among them, the role of the left half circuit in base current compensation is to draw a current of magnitude I B1 from node A. It consists of the field effect transistors M P3 , M P4 ; the bipolar transistors Q1, Q2 and the resistors R2, R3. Among them, Q1 and Q2 are both transistors of the same type and the same area as Q3; M P3 , M P4 form an equivalent replicated current mirror with other PMOSs in the circuit; R2 and R3 have the same resistance value as the bypass resistor R4 in the core circuit, and their role is to make the DC voltage biases of Q1, Q2 and Q3 the same. The relationship between the base current and the collector current of the Q3 transistor is:

[0144]

[0145] where I C is the magnitude of the collector current of the bipolar transistor in the core circuit after base current compensation, and β1 is the common emitter DC amplification factor of the Q3 transistor.

[0146] The magnitude of the current on the PMOS current mirror after base current compensation is:

[0147] I DS = I C + i b1 + I R (15)

[0148] The base currents of the Q1 and Q2 transistors are:

[0149]

[0150] where I BQ2 is the magnitude of the current drawn from node A. The β value is generally from dozens to hundreds, so the left half of the base current compensation circuit draws a current magnitude from node A that is close enough to I B1 .

[0151] The base current compensation circuit on the right half is composed of field effect transistors M P8~12 , M N3~4 ; bipolar transistor Q6 and resistors R8, R9. Among them, M P10 and M P5 , M P6 and other transistors form a current mirror; M P8 and M P9 , M P10 and M P11 , M N3 and M N4 respectively form current mirrors; the resistance value of R8 is the same as that of R5, and the resistance value of R9 is the same as that of R6. In this circuit structure, the biasing conditions of Q6 and Q4 are the same.

[0152] For transistor Q4, the relationship between its base current and collector current is:

[0153]

[0154] β2 is the common emitter DC amplification factor of transistor Q4.

[0155] At the collector junction node of transistor Q6, according to Kirchhoff's current law:

[0156] I C6 = I DS12 - I R - 2I BQ6 (19)

[0157] Substitute I BQ6 = I C6 / β2 into equation (19), and the base current of transistor Q6 can be solved as:

[0158]

[0159] I BQ6 After being mirrored and copied by the current mirror, it is injected into node C.

[0160] β2 generally takes values from dozens to hundreds, and the base current generally takes values of dozens of nA. Therefore, in the base current compensation circuit on the right half, the current injected at node C is close enough to I B2 .

[0161] Apply Kirchhoff's current law to nodes A, B, and C after base current compensation respectively:

[0162]

[0163] The base current compensation circuit realizes extracting a current close enough to I B1 at node A and injecting a current close enough to I B2The effect of the current. Although theoretically, the collector currents of the three bipolar transistors in the compensated core circuit are not exactly the same, they are close enough to eliminate the negative impact of the base current in the core circuit, making the circuit closer to the ideal situation in principle, which is beneficial to reducing the temperature coefficient of the output reference voltage and minimizing the operational amplifier offset.

[0164] At the same time, the base current compensation circuit also introduces new paths in the core loop, which will change the feedback parameters of the core loop. First, analyze the right half of the base current compensation circuit. M P9 is a PMOS in diode connection, which results in a very low total parallel resistance value at its source node. From the perspective of this feedback path, its feedback coefficient is very small. Compared with the feedback coefficient of the core loop, the feedback coefficient of this new feedback path is so small that it can be ignored.

[0165] The left half of the base current compensation circuit newly introduces two feedback paths in total. In both feedback paths, the small signal transmitted from the output terminal of the operational amplifier will pass through the collector of Q2 tube and then return to the input terminal of the operational amplifier from its base. The feedback coefficients of these two feedback paths will become very small because they pass through Q2. Compared with the feedback coefficient of the core loop, the feedback coefficients of these two new feedback paths are also so small that they can be ignored. Therefore, the influence of the base current compensation circuit on the feedback coefficient of the core loop is very small.

[0166] Furthermore, please refer jointly to Figures 1 - 4 , when the core circuit is not at the ideal static operating point, the gate voltage of M P2 is at a low level, the gate voltage of M P2 is less than its threshold voltage, M P2 conducts, the path from VDD to node A is opened, and node A starts to be charged, and its potential gradually rises; due to the effect of the operational amplifier, the potential of node P starts to decrease, and the core circuit reaches the normal operating state. After that, due to the decrease in the potential of node P, the gate voltage of M P1 is less than its threshold voltage, M P1 conducts. Since the pull-up ability of M P1 is stronger than that of M N2 , as a result, the parasitic capacitance of node Q is charged, and the potential of node Q rises until M P2 turns off. At this time, the startup process ends, and all the charge and discharge paths from the power supply to the nodes in the core circuit are closed, and the bandgap reference circuit is no longer affected by the startup process.
