Abstract
A reference voltage circuit includes first circuitry that generates a thermal voltage that is approximately proportional to absolute temperature, a first voltage multiplier, second circuitry that generates an inverse thermal voltage that is approximately inversely proportional to absolute temperature, a second voltage multiplier and a summer. The first voltage multiplier multiplies the thermal voltage to obtain a first multiplied voltage. The multiplied voltage is not equal to the thermal voltage. The second voltage multiplier multiplies the inverse thermal voltage to obtain a second multiplied voltage. The summer sums the first multiplied voltage with the second multiplied voltage to obtain a reference voltage.
