This novel voltage reference was presented for sensing ferromagnetic RAM with a self-trimmed bias voltage reference Vre.
I ran it on Falstad's sim and found some novel properties.
- Vre matches Vgs(th) of T1 plus the very low current and voltage drop across R2.
- When R2 matches R3 then any noise in Vdd has a 98% reduction if both FETs are matched, which was the optimal R ratio point.
- If T2 has a much lower Vgs(th) then the reduction is more than 99.6% reduced.
This puts both T1 and T2 into the saturation high resistance zone.
Read the Vpp levels.
In another simulation using R2/R1=50, I vary R3 and record Vref using V+=10V. But due to the heat loss at high Vref/V+, efficient low current occurs with low R3/R2 <<1 while R2/R1=50.
