Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first bandgap voltage reference sub-circuit configured to provide a first bandgap reference voltage; a second bandgap voltage reference sub-circuit configured to provide a second bandgap reference voltage; a voltage regulator sub-circuit configured to derive a first supply voltage using the first bandgap reference voltage and a second supply voltage using the second bandgap reference voltage; a bandgap comparator sub-circuit configured to derive a first internal voltage and a second internal voltage from the first supply voltage, wherein the first internal voltage decreases at a higher rate than the second internal voltage with respect to a decreasing first supply voltage, wherein the bandgap comparator sub-circuit is configured indicate which of the first and the second internal voltages is larger; and a comparator sub-circuit configured to indicate whether a difference between the first supply voltage and the second supply voltage is larger than a predefined threshold.
