A band-gap type constant voltage generating circuit is produced in a
semiconductor chip, and has a first potential terminal and a second
potential terminal. A band-gap circuit includes first and second
transistors having respective bases connected to each other, a first
resistor connected between emitters of the first and second transistors,
and a second resistor connected between the emitter of the second
transistor and the first potential terminal. A constant voltage
production circuit is provided between the first and second potential
terminals to produce and output a constant voltage based on a
base-emitter voltage of the second transistor of the band-gap circuit,
and the constant voltage is fed as a feedback signal to the base of the
second transistor of the band-gap circuit. A driver circuit is provided
between the first and second potential terminals and connected to
collectors of the first and second transistors to drive the band-gap
circuit. The driver circuit is constituted such that an influence of
absolute process fluctuation, to which the semiconductor chip is
subjected during a production process thereof, is eliminated from the
constant voltage.
