Abstract :
A bandgap-voltage reference implemented with a new accurate circuit configuration for compensating the thermal nonlinearity of the base-emitter voltage is described. With this device, a temperature coefficient of 0.5 ppm//spl deg/C over the temperature range -25 to +85/spl deg/C has been achieved. The minimum required supply voltage amounts to only 5.5 V.
