Abstract
An integrated circuit device comprises a first transistor having a gate coupled to an output of a first operational amplifier, a second transistor having a threshold voltage proportional to a threshold voltage of the first transistor, the second transistor having a gate coupled to an inverting input of a second operational amplifier, an output of the second operational amplifier coupled to an inverting input of the first operational amplifier, a first resistor coupled between the second transistor gate and the inverting input of the second operational amplifier, and a second resistor coupled between the output of the second operational amplifier and the inverting input of the second operational amplifier, a ratio of the second resistor to the first resistor selected based upon a ratio of a production distribution of a transistor source voltage offset to a production distribution of a transistor threshold voltage mismatch.
