Bandgap Reference Calculator Tutorial

Abstract: The Bandgap Reference Calculator (BGRC) aids in the design and analysis of a Brokaw bandgap reference circuit. It calculates all circuit parameters and the output voltage as a function of junction temperature. The calculator can be used with an HP® 50g calculator or a free PC emulator.
