Abstract
With the problem of large power consumption of current reference and narrow supply voltage range
a CMOS reference current source with low power consumption
wide voltage range and low temperature coefficient is proposed.The reference current is generated by adding a certain proportional coefficient between the PTAT and the CTAT current
exhibiting temperature-independent characteristics. Based on CMOS sub-threshold op amps and self-cascading current mirror
it expands the supply voltage range
reduces overall circuit power consumption
and improves circuit performance. The circuit is designed based on the XFAB 0.35 m CMOS process. The result show that the reference current is 5 A
the temperature drift coefficient is 40ppm/℃ in the temperature range of -25℃~125℃
the power supply voltage is 2.5 V~6 V
and the power consumption is 25 A.
