Abstract

A precision voltage regulator comprises a three terminal regulator coupled to a voltage divider. The voltage divider has two composite resistors, each of which comprises a plurality of matched value resistors fabricated on a common substrate, mixed in series and parallel configurations. The resultant voltage divider produces a wide range of divider ratios, while preserving a divider ratio which is independent of temperature and tolerance effects.
