Piecewise compensation method for ultra-low temperature drift

Abstract:

An electronic device includes a bandgap reference circuit having an output, and a bias input; a piecewise compensation circuit having an output coupled to the bias input, and an input; and a piecewise compensation current generator having an output coupled to the input of the piecewise compensation circuit, and a knee point temperature adjustment circuit coupled to the output of the piecewise compensation current generator.
