发明名称 Temperature-compensated current generator, for instance for 1-10V interfaces
摘要 A current generator arrangement for use, e.g., in 1-10V interfaces for lighting systems, includes at least one transistor (Q3) having a base-emitter junction wherein the voltage drop across the base-emitter junction defines the intensity of the output current and wherein the base-emitter junction is exposed to temperature drift. A resistive network (Req2) is coupled to the transistor (Q3), whereby the intensity of the output current is a function of both the voltage drop across the base-emitter junction of the transistor (Q3) and the resistance value of the resistive network (Req2). The resistive network (Req2) includes at least one resistor element (NTC3; NTC4) whose resistance value varies with temperature to keep constant the intensity of the output current irrespective of any temperature drift in the voltage drop across the base-emitter junction of the transistor (Q3).
