Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for generating a stable reference current that has low sensitivity to operating temperature and supply voltage variations and is stable across process corners. In an example implementation, an improved reference current generator circuit is provided that includes a first circuit generating a first current that is proportional to absolute temperature and a second circuit generating a second current that is complementary to absolute temperature based on first transistors operating in respective triode regions. The second current compensates for process, voltage, and temperature variations in the first current at a node. According to some examples, the second current is also generated based on second transistors operating in respective saturation regions. The first current may be generated using a forward biased PN junction diode.
