A method, system, and circuit for providing a bandgap voltage reference are provided. In an example, the method includes producing a first bandgap curve based at least in part on a first circuit, a second circuit, an operational amplifier, and one or more feedback resistors, where the first circuit corresponds to a first voltage that is complementary to absolute temperature (CTAT) and the second circuit corresponds to a second voltage that is proportional to absolute temperature (PTAT). The method also includes providing a temperature independent compensation to the first bandgap curve based at least in part on a bandgap device, a biasing circuit, and a resistor; providing a non-temperature compensation to the first bandgap curve based at least in part on an adjustable divider circuit; and generating a resulting bandgap curve from the first bandgap curve.
