Abstract

A high-order curvature-compensated BiCMOS bandgap voltage reference using piecewise-exponential compensation technique is presented in this paper. The circuit utilizes a variable gain current mirror to realize exponential compensation as well as a common emitter amplifier with local feedback to achieve a second correction. Implemented in 0.5-μm BCD process, the proposed voltage reference consumes a supply current of 17.5聽μA at 2.5聽V. A temperature coefficient(TC) of 1.3聽ppm/掳C, PSRR of more than 76聽dB at low frequencies and a line regulation of 160聽ppm/V from 2.5 to 5聽V are easily achieved, which make it applied widely in portable equipments.
