Abstract
A technique for implementing monolithic resistors with near-zero temperature coefficient (NZ-TC) over a wide temperature range is presented. The typical structure of monolithic resistors contains a core resistor that is connected to the circuit interconnects through contacts. Typically, the temperature behaviour of contact resistors is ignored, however, we show that one can take advantage of contact resistors and their temperature dependancy to control/minimize the temperature coefficient (TC) of the overall resistor structure. As a proof of concept several resistor structures have been implemented in a 0.13-μm CMOS technology. The measurement results over the temperature range of 25 to 200°C confirm the validity of the proposed technique. The temperature performance of the implemented resistors is compared with that of conventional resistors. Without loss of generality, the proposed approach can be used to implement a resistor with a given temperature coefficient.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
