Abstract

A reference using diode-connected MOS transistor and incorporating chopper stabilization is proposed. Mutual compensation of mobility and threshold voltage temperature effects provides good temperature stability; chopper stabilization improves the initial accuracy and noise performance. The design is based on 0.35μm CMOS technology and is simulated using Cadence spectre software. The simulation results show that the reference voltage has a temperature coefficient of 5ppm/°C, over a operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, an initial accuracy of 0.023%, and a narrow-band root-mean square noise of 2.2μV (from 0.1Hz to 1kHz).
