Abstract

The paper proposes a novel low-voltage and low-power bandgap voltage reference, which has superior performance such as low-voltage, low-power and low-temperature coefficient. The simulation based on 0.18-um CMOS process of TSMC. The proposed circuit consists of current source subcircuit, a bipolar transistor and a proportional-to-absolute-Temperature (PTAT) voltage generators, the PTAT voltage generator compensates for negative temperature dependence of a base-emitter voltage in a PNP bipolar transistor, and the voltage with zero temperature coefficient can be generated. Moreover, all of the MOSFETs work in subthreshold region, as a result, the low-voltage and low-power is achieved. The supply voltage is 1V,and it can also work normally from 0.8V to 4V,while the output voltage of the circuit is 0.58V,with maximal power dissipation less than 38nA. The temperature coefficient is about 14.5ppm/ under temperature from -40 to 80 , that means a better temperature stability. So the performance of the proposed circuit is excellent.
