For making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and the specific embodiments.Need to prove that in the situation of not conflicting, the embodiment among the application and the feature among the embodiment be combination in any mutually.
The invention provides a kind of generation circuit of zero-temperature coefficient electrical current, comprise a current output circuit, one end of described current output circuit links to each other with external circuit, one end links to each other with high level, the other end links to each other with an end of a circuit in parallel, the other end ground connection of wherein said parallel circuit, described parallel circuit comprise the first branch road and the second branch road, wherein:

Wherein, the temperature coefficient of the total current behind the electric current weighting that produces of described the first branch road and described the second branch road is zero.
Suppose that in temperature be in the situation of T, the electric current of the first branch road output is I1, and the electric current of the second branch road output is I2, and then the total current of parallel circuit is I1+I2; Be T+t when temperature raises, wherein the electric current of t>0, the first branch road output will become (1-a) I1, and will be relative, and the electric current of the second branch road output will become (1+b) I2, and wherein a and b are all greater than zero; By adjusting the structure of components and parts in described the first branch road or the second branch road, a*I1=b*I2, thus so that the total current of parallel circuit output still is I1+I2.
Preferably, described current output circuit is metal-oxide-semiconductor.
Specifically, this current output circuit is PMOS pipe, and wherein the source electrode of this PMOS pipe connects high level, and grid links to each other with external circuit, and drain electrode links to each other with described parallel circuit.
