    Abstract: A power supply voltage is monitored by a monitoring circuit including a band gap voltage generator core including a first node and a second node. A control circuit connected to the first and second nodes is configured to deliver a control signal on a first output node having a first state when an increasing power supply voltage is below a first threshold and having a second state when increasing power supply voltage exceeds the first threshold. The first threshold is at least equal to the band gap voltage. An equalization circuit also connected to the first and second nodes with feedback to the band gap voltage generator core generates the bandgap voltage at a second output node. The control signal operates to control actuation of the equalization circuit.

    Abstract: According to an embodiment, generating an adjustable bandgap reference voltage includes generating a current proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT). Generating the PTAT current includes equalizing voltages across the terminals of a core that is designed to be traversed by the PTAT current. Generating the adjustable bandgap reference also includes generating a current inversely proportional to absolute temperature (CTAT), summing the PTAT and the CTAT currents and generating the bandgap reference voltage based on the sum of the currents. Equalizing includes connecting-across the terminals of the core a first fed-back amplifier with at least one first stage arranged as a folded setup and including first PMOS transistors arranged according to a common-gate setup. Equalizing also includes biasing the first stage based on the CTAT current. The summation of the PTAT and CTAT currents is performed in the feedback stage of the first amplifier.
