ABSTRACT:
A threshold voltage generator for a field-effect transistor, being of a type adapted to compensate for variations of the threshold voltage from a nominal value, comprising a first amplifier having a first input connected to a current generator; a second amplifier connected ahead of a second input of the first amplifier and having an input connected to another current generator; and a third amplifier connected after the first amplifier and having an output adapted to produce the value of said threshold voltage.
