Internal reference voltage generator capable of controlling value of internal reference voltage according to temperature variation and internal power supply voltage generator including the same
The present invention provides a temperature-compensating reference voltage generator, including a temperature-compensating voltage divider, or variable voltage generator, for dividing an input reference voltage in order to generate a temperature-compensated output voltage. Preferably included, are a first differential amplifier for amplifying a voltage difference between a first reference voltage and a first feedback voltage in order to output an internal reference voltage, a first voltage divider for generating and outputting a first feedback voltage in response to the temperature-compensated voltage, the first voltage divider further including, two resistive elements for controlling a magnitude of reference voltage. In an embodiment of the present invention, operation of MOS transistors in a weak inversion region compensates for changes in temperature, thereby generating a temperature-independent voltage reference, and thus a temperature-independent power supply voltage, thereby reducing fluctuations in performance of semiconductor devices caused by variations in temperature.
