Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 電機與控制工程系所 === 92 === This thesis presents a new and extremely simple low-voltage low-power voltage reference circuit. The voltage reference circuit uses the peaking current mirror circuit to extract the current with PTAT (proportional to absolute temperature), and then the current, through a resistor, is used to compensate for the gate-source voltage with the negative temperature coefficient. Since the transistors in the peaking current mirror circuit are operated in weak inversion (subthreshold region), both the power consumption and the required working supply voltage of the reference circuit are all low. The circuit only requires six elements, four transistors and two resistors. The proposed circuit is implemented using the TSMC 0.35um 3P3M SiGe BiCMOS technology. The design IC, after post simulation, attains the minimum supply voltage 1.4 V, output reference voltage 710 mv, temperature coefficient of 17 ppmC,$ power consumption 6.68 uW and power supply noise rejection ratio -84 dB at 1MHz.
