Abstract:
Apparatuses and methods for providing a current independent of temperature are described. An example apparatus includes a current generator that includes two components that are configured to respond equally and opposite to changes in temperature. The responses of the two components may allow a current provided by the current generator to remain independent of temperature. One of the two components in the current generator may mirror a component included in a voltage source that is configured to provide a voltage to the current generator.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus comprising:\n a voltage generator configured to generate an input voltage; and a current generator configured to generate an output current from an output terminal responsive to the input voltage; wherein the current generator comprises:\n an operational amplifier comprising a first input node receiving the input voltage and a second input node coupled to a circuit node; \n a first transistor coupled between a first power line and the circuit node and configured to be driven by the operational amplifier; \n a second transistor coupled between the first power line and the output terminal and configured to be driven by the operational amplifier; and \n a parallel circuit comprising first and second circuits coupled in parallel between the circuit node and a second power line, the first circuit configured to provide a first current that increases as temperature increases, and the second circuit configured to provide a second current that decreases as the temperature increases.
