Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, a circuit includes: a trimmable reference current generator having a temperature dependent current output node, the trimmable reference current generator including: a proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT) current generation circuit; a first programmable current scaling circuit coupled to the PTAT current generation circuit and including a first output coupled to the temperature dependent current output node; a constant current generation circuit; a second programmable current scaling circuit coupled to the constant current generation circuit and including a first output coupled to the temperature dependent current output node; and a reference interface circuit having an input coupled to the temperature dependent current output node and an output configured to be coupled to a reference current input of a memory sense amplifier.
