A circuit and a method for nullifying temperature dependence of a circuit characteristic. The circuit includes a plurality of transistors configured such that they generate a gate voltage that includes a threshold voltage as a component. The gate voltage is applied to a transistor to generate a current that is proportional to a process transconductance parameter. The current is applied to a comparator having a differential pair of transistors, wherein each transistor has a process transconductance parameter. The circuit takes the ratios of the process transconductance parameter associated with the current to that of each transistor of the differential pair. By rationing the process transconductance parameters, temperature dependence is nullified or negated. The ratios can be used to set the hysteresis voltage of the comparator. |
