3 Description

The REF50xx is a family of low-noise, low-drift, very

high precision voltage references. These references

are capable of both sinking and sourcing current, and

have excellent line and load regulation.

Excellent temperature drift (2.5ppm/°C) and high

accuracy (0.025%) are achieved using proprietary

design techniques. These features, combined with

very low flicker noise (0.5μVPP/V), make the REF50xx

family an excellent choice for use in high-precision

data acquisition systems. REF50 family is available in

enhanced grade (REF50xxEI), high grade (REF50xxI)

and standard grade (REF50xxAI). The reference

voltages are offered in 8-pin SOIC and VSSOP

packages and are specified from –40°C to 125°C.

The REF50xxEI supports wide supply voltage rating

of 42V with ultra-low IQ of 280μA. The wide supply

range allows for direct connection to the battery or

field supply. This also protects the device in case of

power supply IC failure.
