Traditional bandgap reference (BGR) is sensitive to process variation and is not suitable for mass production. Consequently, a stacked piece-wise compensated bandgap reference (SPWBGR) with low beta bipolar is proposed, designed and fabricated in the 0.18 μm high-voltage (HV) BCD process. Two stacked BGR (SBGR) cores make up the proposed BGR circuit. Through setting the target reference voltage near the output voltage of SBGR cores, the feedback resistor ratio is reduced and the base current side-effect is significantly decreased. Notably, the SBGR core is implemented by the low beta npn bipolar and it relaxes the requirement for the high beta bipolar. The two SBGR cores are almost identical except for the temperature slope and feedback ratio. The two cores have different zero temperature coefficient (TC) points, one is set at −5 °C, and the other is set at 60 °C, named as SBGRA and SBGRB, respectively. The SBGRA and SBGRB output the same voltage at their zero TC point. The higher voltage of SBGRA and SBGRB is the output voltage. Through the process of tracking the maximum value of different SBGR cores, the proposed SPWBGR achieves 2.6 ppm/°C TC from −40 to 100 °C. As a result, the average TC for five random samples is 5.3 ppm/°C. The line regulation is 2 mV/V from 4.5 to 5.5 V power supply. The current consumption is 6.8 µA. The active area of the proposed BGR is 0.075 mm2.

In this paper, a low temperature coefficient bandgap voltage (BGR) is designed for A/D converter by adopting piecewise-linear compensation technique. The designed BGR is analyzed and simulated in SMIC 0.18μm CMOS process. Simulation results show that the PSRR of the designed BGR achieves-72.51dB, -72.49dB, and-70.58dB at 10Hz, 100Hz and 1kHz respectively. The designed BGR achieve the temperature coefficient of 1.57 ppm/°C when temperature is in the range from-35°C to 125°C. When power supply voltage VDD changes from 1V to 7V, the deviation of the designed BGR output voltage VREF is only 4.465μV.

A bandgap reference voltage source with a temperature coefficient adjustment block was proposed. The bandgap topology employs current summation and the circuit was designed through metaheuristic algorithms in a 0.35-mm CMOS technology. Simulations with typical parameters show that the designed circuit has temperature coefficient of 15 ppm/0C, line regulation of 263 ppm/V, and current consumption of 2.71 uA in 1.0 V power supply. An additional 3-bit temperature adjustment block allowed keeping the temperature coefficient values lower than 26.6 ppm/0C for 90% of the circuits, without interfering with the reference voltage output or line regulation values.

This paper investigates the output characteristics of photovoltaic solar cells working in hostile working conditions. Examined cells, produced by different innovative procedures, are available in the market. The goal was to investigate stability of electric characteristics of solar cells, which are used today in photovoltaic solar modules for charging rechargeable batteries which, coupled with batteries, supply various electronic systems such as radio repeaters on mountains tops, airplanes, mobile communication stations and other remote facilities. Charging of rechargeable batteries requires up to 25 % higher voltage compared to nominal output voltage of the battery. This paper presents results of research of solar cells, which also apply to cases in which continuous power supply is required.
