Systems and methods are provided for a temperature-compensated threshold voltage VT. The stability problems associated with temperature changes are reduced for LL4TCMOS SRAM cells by providing a temperature-compensated VTN. According to one embodiment, a temperature-based modulation of a VBB potential back-biases a triple-well transistor with a temperature-compensated voltage to provide the pull-down transistor with a temperature-compensated VTN that is flat or relatively flat with respect to temperature. One embodiment provides a bias generator, including a charge pump coupled to a body terminal of the transistor(s), and a comparator coupled to the charge pump. The comparator includes a first input that receives a reference voltage, a second input that receives a VT-dependent voltage, and an output that presents a control signal to the charge pump and causes the charge pump to selectively charge the body terminal of the transistor to compensate for temperature changes.
