Abstract:
A voltage-to-current converter circuit has a differential input unit, and is provided with an input offset voltage, wherein the temperature characteristics of the differential input unit and input offset voltage are substantially flat. A current is supplied wherein a second fixed current having positive temperature characteristics is added to a first fixed current having flat characteristics as a bias current to the differential input unit, to balance the temperature characteristics of the differential input unit and the temperature characteristics of the bias current, thus causing the differential input unit transconductance temperature characteristics to be substantially zero (e.g., substantially flat).
