Abstract

A voltage reference circuit can operate in a large supply voltage range, including a low supply voltage, and can operate with high PSRR. The voltage reference circuit supplies a voltage reference with a near zero temperature coefficient (TC) across a wide-temperature range. The voltage reference circuit develops a first current with a positive temperature coefficient from a first transistor and a second current with a negative temperature coefficient from a second transistor. The control terminals of the two transistors are supplied by respective outputs of two error amplifiers. The two currents are combined to develop a voltage reference across a resistor. The voltage reference has a near zero temperature coefficient.
