  • Abstract
    A new technique for high-order temperature compensation of bandgap voltage references is introduced and described. This method relies on the use of a “ΔVBE ladder” topology that allows the temperature coefficient of a bandgap reference to be adjusted to less than 5 ppm/°C without the need for complex circuitry. The technique has been verified experimentally and via PSpice simulation, and an improved version of the circuit is being implemented in a 2.0 μm BiCMOS process
