The source is apt to generate a fully-differential reference voltage at the output terminals, whereto precisely-balanced loads are applied. The voltage reference is obtained from a bandgap voltage source fed with currents proportional to the temperature, in order to minimize thermal voltage variations. Suitable circuits for starting the normal source operation after switching on are also provided.

Abstract

The source is apt to generate a fully-differential reference voltage at the output terminals, whereto precisely-balanced loads are applied. The voltage reference is obtained from a bandgap voltage source fed with currents proportional to the temperature, in order to minimize thermal voltage variations. Suitable circuits for starting the normal source operation after switching on are also provided.

The Electrical and Electronics Engineering category covers resources concerned with applications of electricity, generally those involving current flow through conductors, as in motors and generators. This category also covers the examination of the conduction of electricity through gases or a vacuum as well as through semiconducting materials. Topics include image and signal processing, electromagnetics, electronic components and materials, microwave technology, and microelectronics.
