Abstract :
A novel temperature-independent direct current converter, the subject of a patent application number GB051623.8, is presented. Conversion ratios from less than unity to in excess of 50 are possible. Simulation measurements show an output temperature coefficient as low as 16 ppm/°C over the temperature range -40 to +85°C.
