Abstract
In this short chapter, we review bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) that can be obtained in the basic CMOS processes. The parasitic BJTs have been extensively discussed, mostly in the context of avoiding the latch-up risk for CMOS ICs. We here focus on a couple of applications, especially in the voltage reference circuits, of the BJTs. We also discuss a special punchthrough transistor that can be obtained from the CMOS process.
