  • Patent number: 10187041
    Abstract: A pseudo resistance circuit is disclosed that is capable of suppressing fluctuation in resistance value with fluctuation in process or temperature and facilitating adjustment. The pseudo resistance circuit includes a first MOSFET, a second MOSFET, a first current source which generates a first current substantially proportional to absolute temperature, and voltage source which generates a first voltage, which is a substantially linear function of absolute temperature. The gate of the first MOSFET and the gate of the second MOSFET are connected together, the second MOSFET is diode-connected, the first current is supplied to the drain of the second MOSFET, the first voltage is applied to the source of the second MOSFET, and a resistor having a resistance value according to the gate voltage of the first MOSFET is formed between the drain and the source of the first MOSFET.
