Abstract
A proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT) circuit is provided. By judiciously combining circuit elements into two or more cell it is possible to effectively dump bias current into impedance resistive element of a first cell from other cells of the circuit. As a result the circuit as a whole can operate with smaller resistive elements and therefore occupy less area when implemented in silicon. It is also possible to reduce the supply current that is required for providing specific output currents or voltages.
