Application: Microcontroller including a reference voltage generator circuit (Patent ID: US20240210984A1)
The patent filed by STMicroelectronics NV describes a microcontroller with a reference voltage generator circuit that includes transistors, resistors, an operational amplifier, a current mirror, and a current copier branch. The circuit is designed to generate a reference voltage independent of temperature by replicating currents proportional to the absolute temperature of variable resistors. A control unit adjusts resistive values and current injection through the second transistor based on the microcontroller's operating modes to enhance accuracy or reduce power consumption.
The microcontroller's reference voltage generator circuit operates by conducting currents proportional to the absolute temperature of variable resistors through different branches, mirroring these currents, and controlling the injection of current through the second transistor. The control unit adapts resistive values and current injection based on the microcontroller's operating modes, such as increasing accuracy or reducing power consumption. This method ensures a stable reference voltage regardless of temperature variations and optimizes the microcontroller's performance based on specific operational requirements, all controlled through a sophisticated system of transistors, resistors, and an operational amplifier.
