摘要:

设计了一种适用于无源超高频射频识别芯片的电流模带隙基准电路,其中负温度系数电流利用BJT管的基射极电压的负温度特性产生,正温度系数电流利用偏置在亚阈值区的MOS器件其漏源电流与栅源电压呈指数关系的特性产生.该基准电路采用TSMC 0.18μm工艺库仿真并投片验证,基准电压的绝对值偏差最大不超过1.75%.测试结果表明,该电路功耗仅为0.65μW,最低工作电压为0.829V,温度系数为±63×10-6/℃,芯片有效面积为0.04mm2.该基准电路已成功应用于一款无源超高频射频识别芯片中,其读取灵敏度为-16dBm.

Abstract:

A novel low-voltage, low-power current mode bandgap reference circuit for the passive UHF RFID tag is presented. The ICTAT current is generated by VBE of the BJT transistor. The ICTAT current is generated by the MOSFET biased in the sub-threshold region, based on the theory that the I-V curve of the sub-threshold MOSFET shows an exponential relationship. The circuit is designed and implemented by TSMC 0.18μm CMOS technology. The biggest variation of Vref of the reference is smaller than 1.75%. Test results show that the power of the circuit is 0.65μW, and that the minimum operating voltage is 0.829V. The active area of the circuit is about 0.04mm2. As a result, the read sensitivity of the tag with the proposed bandgap reference circuit is -16dBm.

Key words: ultra high frequency radio frequency identification, low voltage, low power, sub-threshold, bandgap reference
