Introduction
Reference Voltage Generator
.cascode current mirror is used
.a simple current mirror Where VA is the Early voltage
As the supply voltage has large variations, we have an unacceptable PSRR of the series voltage regulator.
.use a cascode current mirror where λ is the channel length modulation coefficient
.By setting k1/k2=0.5 and R= 2 MΩ, we can get a very good PSRR for the voltage regulator.
Series Voltage Regulator
Experimental Results
Conclusion.Experiment confirms that it provides a very low quiescent power consumption, and a very good PSRR.. quiescent current of only 34nA.Provide a regulated voltage of 0.6 V
