Abstract
A reference voltage generator includes an output terminal, a load circuit connected between the output terminal and a ground voltage terminal, an output transistor connected between the output terminal and a power supply voltage terminal, a first constant current source connected between the output terminal and the power supply voltage terminal, a first switch circuit that selectively connects the output terminal with the output transistor or the first constant current source, and a control circuit that controls a band-gap current to be supplied to the load circuit. In a first state, the first switch circuit connects the output terminal with the output transistor, and the control circuit controls an activation state of the output transistor. In a second state, the first switch circuit connects the output terminal with the first constant current source, and the control circuit controls the amount of current drawn from the first constant current source.
