Winner, Name that Ware July 2026

The structure in question for last month’s ware are a pair of NPN transistors that form the core of a bandgap voltage reference circuit. As its name implies, a bandgap voltage reference generates a near-constant voltage for use inside chips. The voltage is intended to be fairly constant over process variations, temperature variations, and power supply fluctuations. The circuit itself is extremely clever, using circuit elements that have offsets that move in opposite directions with temperature t...
