AD680

TEMPERATURE OUTPUT PIN
The 8-lead package versions of the AD680 provide a tempera-
ture output pin on Pin 3 of each device. The output of Pin 3
(TEMP) is a voltage that varies linearly with temperature. V
TEMP
at 25°C is 596 mV, and the temperature coefficient is 2 mV/°C.
Figure 16 shows the output of this pin over temperature.
The temperature pin has an output resistance of 12 kΩ and is
c
apable of sinking or sourcing currents of up to 5 μA without
disturbing the reference output. This enables the TEMP pin to
be buffered by many inexpensive operational amplifiers that
have bias currents below this value.

DIFFERENTIAL TEMPERATURE TRANSDUCER
Figure 17 shows a differential temperature transducer that can
be used to measure temperature changes in the environment of
the AD680. This circuit operates from a 5 V supply. The
temperature-dependent voltage from the TEMP pin of the
AD680 is amplified by a factor of 5 to provide wider full-scale
range and more current sourcing capability. An exact gain of 5
can be achieved by adjusting the trim potentiometer until the
output varies by 10 mV/°C. To minimize resistance changes
with temperature, use resistors with low temperature
coefficients, such as metal film resistors.

LOW POWER, LOW VOLTAGE REFERENCE FOR
DATA CONVERTERS
The AD680 has a number of features that make it ideally suited
for use with ADCs and DACs. The low supply voltage required
makes it possible to use the AD680 with today’s converters that
run on 5 V supplies without having to add a higher supply
voltage for the reference. The low quiescent current (195 μA),
combined with the completeness and accuracy of the AD680,
make it ideal for low power applications, such as hand-held,
battery-operated meters.
The AD7701 is an ADC that is well-suited for the AD680.
Figure 18 shows the AD680 used as the reference for this
con
verter. The AD7701 is a 16-bit ADC with on-chip digital
f
iltering intended for the measurement of wide dynamic range
and low frequency signals, such as those representing chemical,
physical, or biological processes. It contains a charge balancing
(Σ–Δ) ADC, a calibration microcontroller with on-chip static
RAM, a clock oscillator, and a serial communications port.
This entire circuit runs on ±5 V supplies. The power dissipation
of
the AD7701 is typically 25 mW and, when combined with
th
e power dissipation of the AD680 (1 mW), the entire circuit
consumes just 26 mW of power.
