ABSTRACT:
This invention discloses a constant voltage circuit including a bandgap circuit connected between a ground voltage and a source voltage, a transistor, the collector of which is connected to the collector of a negative feedback transistor for supplying a voltage of a base-emitter path to the other terminal of a resistor having one terminal connected to an output terminal of the bandgap circuit, and the base of which is connected to a voltage source free from variations in source voltage, and a resistor connected between the emitter of the transistor and the source voltage.
