本文提出了一种基于NPN的β补偿温度传感器,通过结合低噪声电流模式前端、β补偿方案、动态误差校正和室温校准,同时实现了高精度(±0.1°C 3σ,-55°C至125°C)和高能效(200fJ∙K2 FoM),解决了NPN型传感器精度不足的问题。
The two key performance metrics of BJT-based temperature sensors are their accuracy and energy efficiency. Although NPN-based temperature sensors achieve the best energy efficiency [1], they have not been able to combine this with the accuracy of their PNPbased counterparts [2,3,4]. This paper presents an NPN-based sensor that achieves both state-of-the-art energy efficiency (200fJ∙K2 FoM) and inaccuracy (0.1°C (3σ) from -55°C to 125°C). It does this by combining a low-noise current-mode front-end with a β-compensation scheme, dynamic-error-correction techniques, and room temperature (RT) calibration. Compared to sensors with high accuracy and energy efficiency [2,3,4,6], the proposed sensor is 2× smaller as well as 2× more energy efficient. A simplified block diagram of the proposed sensor is shown in Fig. 3.7.1 (top). Two NPNs Q1 and Q2 with an emitter area ratio ‘r’ are biased at identical collector currents,
