Abstract (en)

[origin: CN104731148A] The invention relates to an electronic circuit with self-calibrated PTAT current reference and a method for actuating the same. The electronic circuit(1) with a self-calibrated PTAT current reference includes a PTAT current generator dependent on at least one integrated resistor(8) for supplying a PTAT output current(3). It further includes a reference current generator(3) dependent on at least one switched capacitor resistor(12), for supplying a reference current(Iref). The reference current(Iref) and the PTAT output current(IOUT) are compared in a comparator(6) so as to digitally adapt the programmable integrated resistor(8), or to digitally adapt the dimensional ratio of the transistors(P11,P12,P13) of a current mirror in the PTAT current generator, to supply the adapted PTAT output current(IOUT).
