ABSTRACT:
A regulated voltage supply comprising a degenerative feedback loop in which an amplified error signal provides either series-regulation or shunt-regulation of the output voltage. A negative-temperature-coefficient a forward-biased semiconductor junction is compared against a portion of the output voltage to develop the error signal. The comparison between these voltages is made in an unbalanced different-input amplifier configuration that provides a zero-valued error signal so long as there is a positive-temperature-coefficient potential difference between the voltages being compared. The output voltage is proportional to the sum of the negative- and positive-temperature-coefficient voltages and can be made temperature-independent by properly proportioning the summed voltages.
