Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for providing bias signals in a semiconductor device are described. As example apparatus includes a power supply line configured to provide a supply voltage and further includes first and second nodes. An impedance element is coupled between the power supply line and the first node and a first transistor having a gate, a source coupled to the first node, and a drain coupled to the second node. A reference line is configured to provide a reference voltage. A second transistor has a gate, a source coupled to the reference line, and a drain. The gate and the drain of the second transistor are coupled to the gate of the first transistor.
