A: We do care the degenerate points of a bandgap reference circuit. The bandgap reference circuit needs a more effective startup circuit than those usually adopted. The crossing (degenerate) points are much less defined. Please read the attached bandgap degenerate points.pdf & J ~6 J5 I+ |& a

5 y; [/ e5 F bBanba et al, in "A CMOS Bandgap Reference Circuit with Sub-1-V Opeation", discloses a bandgap reference circuit that can operate at supply voltage down to about 1V. This configuration needs two additional resistors, RA and RB, to generate CTAT currents. However, these two resistors will result in more than one opeating point, especially when the drain voltages of PMOS transistors, drops below ΔVbe(i.e., when the two bipolar devices are turns off). Existence of more than one opeating point makes the start-up circuit very complex, or requires an additional circuit to gurantee achievement of a proper operating point. Without such a circuit, the risk of having an undesired operating point is high.
