Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19624676C1] The circuit arrangement comprises a first transistor (T1), whose emitter is joined with a ground voltage (M) and whose basis and collector are connected with each other, and a second transistor (T2), whose basis is joined with the basis of the first transistor. A first resistance (R1) is connected between the collector of the first transistor and an output (U) for providing the reference voltage. A second resistance (R2), is connected between the collector of the second transistor and the output. A third resistance (R3) is connected between the emitter of the second transistor and the ground voltage. A third transistor (T3) is provided, whose basis is connected with the collector of the second transistor and whose emitter is joined with the ground voltage. A fourth transistor (T4) has its collector connected with supply voltage (V), its emitter connected to the output and its basis to the collector of the third transistor, whereby a first current source (R5, T5) is provided between basis and collector of the fourth transistor. A second current source (T17, R16) is connected in parallel to the first current source, for compensation of the current sway of the first current source.
