Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic circuit technology, and in particular to a low-voltage bandgap reference voltage source circuit without operational amplifiers. Background Technology

[0002] Bandgap voltage references, as a type of bias voltage source, are widely used in analog and mixed-signal chips. To provide low temperature coefficients and high power supply rejection ratios, bandgap references often use operational amplifiers (op-amps), but this increases circuit power consumption and complexity, and introduces greater noise. However, op-amp-less bandgap references generally have higher temperature coefficients.

[0003] Since silicon has a bandgap voltage of approximately 1.205V, most bandgap voltage references are sized around 1.205V. However, many applications require low-voltage references, which conventional bandgap voltage references often cannot meet.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a mature op-amp-free low-voltage bandgap reference voltage source to obtain a low-temperature coefficient, low-noise, and high power supply rejection ratio low-voltage bandgap reference without increasing power consumption and circuit complexity.

[0028] Please see Figure 2 When the positive temperature coefficient current generation module is powered on, because the gate voltages of the two sets of common-source cascode current mirror PMOS transistors P1 and P3, and P2 and P4 are the same, and the source voltages of PMOS transistors P1 and P3 are the same, all PMOS transistors P1, P2, P3, and P4 are in the saturation region.

[0039] In formula (7) Voltage with a negative temperature coefficient For positive temperature coefficient voltage, set By setting appropriate values ​​for m1*m2*n2*n3, a voltage with zero temperature coefficient can be obtained.

[0040] This invention uses NMOS transistors N5 and N8 as equivalent resistors, which reduces the layout area and prevents the resistors from competing with current sources in the same branch for current control. Resistor R1 provides appropriate bias to the cascode current mirror, ensuring the current-carrying MOS transistors are in the saturation region. This improves the power supply rejection ratio and reduces circuit complexity and power consumption. Inverter transistors N3 and N6 are used, and negative feedback makes the circuit's quiescent operating point more stable. Appropriate capacitors C2 and C3 are used to compensate for the negative feedback loop in the circuit, preventing oscillations.

[0041] Based on the above analysis, this invention designs a low-voltage bandgap reference circuit by combining a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) current generation module, a PTC voltage generation module, and a reference voltage synthesis module. After generating a PTC current through the PTC current generation module, the PTC voltage generation module converts the current density difference into a PTC voltage difference. Similarly, the reference voltage synthesis module converts the current density difference into a PTC voltage difference, adds it to the first PTC voltage, and then adds it to the negative temperature coefficient voltage to generate a low-temperature coefficient low-voltage bandgap reference voltage. This invention uses a common-source cascode current mirror, improving the output power supply rejection ratio; it employs an op-amp-less structure, reducing circuit complexity and power consumption, and lowering output noise.
