Abstract

A circuit may include a current generator coupled to a first voltage source. The current generator may be configured to generate a first current, and mirror the first current into a second current and a third current. The circuit may include a proportional to absolute temperature ('PTAT') voltage generator coupled to the current generator and a second voltage source. The PTAT voltage generator may be configured to receive the second current from the current generator, and generate a third voltage based on the second current. The circuit may include a complementary to absolute temperature (“CTAT”) voltage generator coupled to the current generator and to the PTAT voltage generator. The CTAT voltage generator may be configured to receive the first current and the third current from the current generator, and generate a reference voltage based on the first current, the second current, and the third voltage.
