Abstract
A bandgap circuit, a starter circuit, and a monitoring circuit for a bandgap circuit including a bandgap reference circuit having a first branch and a second branch, the first branch having a first node, the second branch having a second node, such that a potential at the first node is equal to a potential at the second node in an equilibrium of the bandgap reference circuit. The bandgap reference circuit further having a feedback node for a feedback signal and a feedback circuit coupled to the first and second nodes and adapted to provide a feedback signal to the feedback node based upon a comparison of the potentials at the first and second nodes.
