Abstract:
In this paper, an improved self-biased bandgap reference (BGR) with high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is presented. An operational amplifier constructing feedback loop is multiplexed with the generation of positive temperature coefficient (TC) voltage for lower power consumption, where an offset voltage is adopted to achieve proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT) voltage. With the temperature-independent reference generation, two feedback loops are realized at the same time for PSRR enhancement, which form a local negative feedback loop (LNFL) and a global self-biased loop (GSBL). The proposed BGR is implemented in a 180 nm BCD technology, whose results show that the generated reference voltage is 2.506 V, and the TC is 25 ppm/°C in the temperature range of -55 to 125 °C. The line sensitivity (LS) is 0.08 ‰/V. Without any filter capacitor, the PSRR is 76 dB at low frequencies, over 46 dB up to 1 MHz.

Biasing of P-N Junction
In equilibrium, no external voltage is applied across the p-n junction. The depletion region is formed at the junction interface due to the diffusion of carriers, which leaves behind charged dopants, acceptors on the p-side, and donors on the n-side. These immobile charges create an electric field that prevents further diffusion of carriers. The related energy band...
