This band-gap circuit overcomes the deficiencies of conventional band-gap circuits by compensating for higher order temperature effects, thereby increasing accuracy. A first resistor network including two resistors is connect to a first transistor while a second resistor network that includes one resistor is connected to a second transistor. One resistor in the first resistor network has a high temperature sensitivity, and therefore produces a temperature dependent ratio of currents through the transistors. The inverting input and noninverting input of an operational amplifier are coupled to the collectors of the two transistors. The emitter region of the second transistor is coupled to two additional resistors which are connected in series to each other. The emitter region of the first transistor is coupled to the junction between these two additional resistors. The output of the operational amplifier is coupled to the bases of the transistors. Introducing a temperature dependent current ratio through the transistors allows for correction of higher order temperature terms previously ignored by prior art band-gap circuits.
