GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADR291 is a low noise, micropower precision voltage refer-
ence that uses an XFET® reference circuit. The XFET architecture
offers significant performance improvements over traditional
band gap and buried Zener-based references. Improvements
include one quarter of the voltage noise output of band gap refer-
ences operating at the same current, very low and ultralinear
temperature drift, low thermal hysteresis, and excellent long-
term stability.
The ADR291 is a series voltage reference providing a stable and
accurate output voltage from supplies as low as 2.8 V. The
output voltage is 2.5 V.
Quiescent current is only 12 μA, making these devices ideal for
battery-powered instrumentation. Output accuracy is ±8.3 mV
maximum. Temperature coefficient is 15 ppm/°C maximum.
Line regulation and load regulation are typically 30 ppm/V and
30 ppm/mA, maintaining the overall high performance of the
reference. For a device with 5.0 V output, refer to the ADR293
data sheet.
The ADR291 is specified over the automotive temperature
range of −40°C to +125°C. The device is available in the 8-lead
SOIC package.
