A band gap voltage reference circuit comprises a first band gap (BG) circuit that generates a first BG voltage potential. A second BG circuit includes a variable resistance and outputs a second BG voltage potential that is related to a value of said variable resistance. A calibration circuit communicates with said first and second BG circuits, adjusts said variable resistance based on said first BG voltage potential and said second BG voltage potential, and selectively shuts down said first BG circuit.
