Abstract

A novel low-voltage low-power CMOS voltage reference independent of temperature is presented in this design. After considering the combined effect of (1) a perfect suppression of the temperature dependence of mobility; (2) the compensation of the channel length modulation effect on the temperature coefficient, a temperature coefficient of 10 ppm/[Formula: see text]C is achieved. Moreover, by adopting the subthreshold MOSFETs, there are no resistors used in the proposed structure. Therefore, the maximum supply current measured at the maximum supply voltage is 70 nA and at 80[Formula: see text]C. The circuit can be used as a voltage reference for high performance and low power dissipation on a single chip.
