Abstract:
A temperature compensation circuit, applied on a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistor, with a threshold voltage varying with respect to a temperature value of the MOS transistor, for having the MOS transistor corresponding to an equivalent threshold voltage substantially with a constant value throughout a temperature range, comprises a voltage generator. The voltage generator provides a voltage proportional to absolute temperature (VPTAT) to drive the body of the MOS transistor in such way that a variation of the threshold voltage due to temperature variation of the MOS transistor is substantially compensated with a variation of the threshold voltage due to body-source voltage variation of the MOS transistor, so that the MOS transistor corresponds to the equivalent threshold voltage that is temperature invariant.
