Abstract

A bandgap generator including an MOS current mirror, first and second bipolar transistors and an MOS transistor pair operating in saturation. Cascode transistors interconnect the saturation transistor pair and the MOS transistor pair. A bias resistor interconnects the one of the cascode transistors and one transistor of the MOS current mirror.
