Abstract
This paper presents a high-precision bandgap voltage reference (BGR) with high-order temperature compensation. The compensation signal is generated by using both strong-inversion MOSFETs and Bipolar Junction transistors (BJTs), which cancels the high-order nonlinear term T\ln (T) in the BJT base-emitter voltage (VBE), and thus a low temperature coefficient (TC) over a wide temperature range is achieved. The proposed BGR circuit is fabricated in a 0.18-μm} CMOS process with an active area of 0.256 mm2 and a max power consumption of 1.35 mW. A minimum TC of 0.706 ppm/°C from 25°C to 125 °C is achieved after an 8-bit resistance trimming. The line sensitivity is 0.0146%/V operating from 3.2 V to 3.7 V. The BGR achieves a power supply rejection (PSR) of-63.4 dB and a noise spectrum density of 0.92 μ VlHz at 10 Hz.
