Resistorless BJT bias and curvature compensation circuit at 3.4 nW for CMOS bandgap voltage references

Abstract: A novel resistorless bipolar junction transistor (BJT) bias and curvature compensation circuit for ultra-low power CMOS bandgap voltage references (BGR) is introduced. It works in the nano-ampere current consumption range and under 1 V of power supply. The analytical behavior of the circuit is described, and simulation results for a 0.18 µm CMOS standard process are analysed. A junction voltage of 550 mV at room temperature is obtained (at an emitter current of 3.5 nA), presenting an almost linear temperature … Show more

“…Though bandgap reference succeeds in decreasing temperature sensitivity, 8 the noise performance is extraordinary poor because of the complex structure. Other researches also focus on temperature sensitivity, [9][10][11] and no e®orts have been made in the low-noise direction.…”

“…Many researches have been carried out on high-performance reference circuits with low temperature coefficient (TC) and high PSRR operation [7][8][9][10]. Conventional voltage references are based on bandgap reference (BGR) circuit, which is one of the most fundamental building blocks in integrated circuits [11][12].…”
