A voltage reference circuit is provided. In some embodiments, the voltage reference circuit includes a MOS stack that includes two or more MOS transistors having a substantially same voltage threshold. The voltage reference circuit is configured to generate, via the MOS stack, a first voltage waveform having a first temperature co-efficient and a second voltage waveform having a second temperature co-efficient. In some embodiments, the first temperature co-efficient has a polarity that is opposite a polarity of the second temperature co-efficient. In some embodiments, the first voltage waveform and the second voltage waveform are used to generate a reference voltage waveform, where the reference voltage waveform is substantially temperature independent due to the opposite polarities of the first temperature co-efficient and the second temperature co-efficient.
