Abstract

See full text

Described are apparatuses and methods for generating a temperature-stabilized reference voltage on a semiconductor chip. An apparatus may include a differential amplifier including a first input, a second input, and an output. The apparatus may further include a first bipolar junction transistor (BJT) coupled to the first input; a second BJT coupled to the second input; and beta compensation circuitry, coupled to the first BJT and the second BJT, to regulate a first collector current of the first BJT to be independent of a first current gain of the first BJT and a second collector current of the second BJT to be independent of a second current gain of the second BJT. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
