Title:
BANDGAP REFERENCE CIRCUIT, AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/043022
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A bandgap reference circuit (20) comprises: a diode characteristic element group (22); a dynamic element matching circuit (23) which repeatedly performs an operation to select, from the diode characteristic element group (22), a first diode characteristic element group (22a) configured by connecting in parallel M diode characteristic elements, and a second diode characteristic element group (22b) configured by connecting in parallel N (≥M) diode characteristic elements, within a fixed period, while changing a combination of selected diode characteristic elements; a reference voltage generating circuit (30) for generating a reference voltage (VBG) on the basis of a difference between current densities of currents flowing through the first diode characteristic element group (22a) and the second diode characteristic element group (22b); and a second-order temperature coefficient adjusting circuit (37) for adjusting a second-order temperature coefficient of the generated reference voltage (VBG).
