Abstract

See full text

To compensate for changes in temperature, a pair of bipolar transistors is connected to a voltage divider and receives a differential voltage that varies with temperature. The voltage divider includes a set of resistors placed in parallel. The set of resistors has a resistance that changes with temperature. As the resistance changes with temperature, the differential voltage provided by the voltage divider changes in proportion to a change in thermal voltage.
