Abstract
A reference voltage generating circuit includes a current generating section, a voltage generating section, a voltage dividing circuit, and a synthesis section. The current generating section generates a first current having a positive temperature coefficient. The voltage generating section generates a voltage having a negative temperature coefficient. The voltage dividing circuit divides the voltage of the negative temperature coefficient, generated by the voltage generating section. The synthesis section generates a voltage which is the sum of a terminal voltage obtained on causing the first current through a resistor and a voltage obtained on dividing the voltage having the negative temperature coefficient by the voltage dividing circuit, and outputs the sum voltage generated as a reference voltage.
