Novel circuit design techniques for CMOSFET (complementary MOS field-effet transistor)-only bias circuits, which each include a current mirror with a peaking characteristic, a current reference with a positive temperature coefficient, and a voltage reference with an optional temperature dependence, are described. An MOS Nagata current mirror is analyzed, and bias circuits like a CMOS self-biasing Nagata current reference and a CMOS self-biasing Nagata voltage reference, both of which include an MOS Nagata current mirror, are discussed. In addition, a CMOS temperature coefficient shifter, used to add an offset voltage and an optional temperature coefficient to a reference voltage, is also discussed. The CMOS Nagata voltage reference was verified with a breadboard using discrete componente and a 0.15 mV/ temperature dependence.
