Abstract

A negative reference voltage generating circuit generating a negative reference voltage is provided, including a differential amplifier, a first diode, second diodes, and a third resistor. The differential amplifier includes a non-inverting input terminal, an inverting input terminal, and an output terminal, and is driven by a positive and a negative power voltages. The output terminal is connected with the non-inverting input terminal via a first resistor and connected with the inverting input terminal via a second resistor. The first diode includes a cathode connected with the non-inverting input terminal of the differential amplifier and an anode connected with a ground. The second diodes respectively include a cathode connected with a predetermined connection point and an anode connected with the ground, and are connected in parallel. The third resistor is connected between the connection point and the inverting input terminal of the differential amplifier.
