Original Abstract Submitted
The stabilized voltage generation circuit includes: a first voltage generation circuit configured to generate a first voltage with positive temperature characteristics; and a second voltage generation circuit including a first MOSFET having a gate of a first conductivity type and a second MOSFET having a gate of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type and configured to generate a second voltage with negative temperature characteristics based on the difference in gate threshold voltage between the first and second MOSFETs. The output voltage is generated based on the sum voltage of the first and second voltages.
