Abstract
The voltage reference circuit includes: a first MOS transistor; a second MOS transistor including a gate terminal connected to a gate terminal of the first MOS transistor and having an absolute value of a threshold value and a K value higher than an absolute value of a threshold value and a K value of the first MOS transistor; a current mirror circuit flowing a current based on a difference between the absolute values of the threshold values of the first MOS transistor and the second MOS transistor; a third MOS transistor flowing the current; and a fourth MOS transistor having an absolute value of a threshold value and a K value higher than an absolute value of a threshold value of the third MOS transistor and flowing the current.
