Abstract
The electronic circuit with a self-calibrated PTAT current reference includes a PTAT current generator dependent on at least one integrated resistor for supplying a PTAT output current. It further includes a reference current generator dependent on at least one switched capacitor resistor, for supplying a reference current. The reference current and the PTAT output current are compared in a comparator so as to digitally adapt the programmable integrated resistor, or to digitally adapt the dimensional ratio of the transistors of a current mirror in the PTAT current generator, to supply the adapted PTAT output current.
