LT1236 Precision Reference UFEATUSREDESCRIPTIO ■ Ultra-Low Drift: 5ppm/ ° C Max The LT®1236 is a precision reference that combines ultra- ■ Trimmed to High Accuracy: 0.05% Max low drift and noise with excellent long-term stability and ■ Industrial Temperature Range SO Package high output accuracy. The reference output will both ■ Operates in Series or Shunt Mode source and sink up to 10mA and is almost totally immune ■ Pin Compatible with AD586, AD587 to input voltage variations. Two voltages are available: 5V ■ Output Sinks and Sources in Series Mode and 10V. The 10V version can be used as a shunt regulator ■ Very Low Noise < 1ppm (two-terminal zener) with the same precision characteris- P-P (0.1Hz to 10Hz) ■ 100% Noise Tested tics as the three-terminal connection. Special care has ■ > 100dB Ripple Rejection been taken to minimize thermal regulation effects and ■ Minimum Input/Output Differential of 1V temperature induced hysteresis. The LT1236 combines both superior accuracy and tem- OU perature coefficient specifications without the use of high APPLICATIS power, on-chip heaters. The LT1236 references are based ■ A/D and D/A Converters on a buried zener diode structure which eliminates noise ■ Precision Regulators and stability problems with surface breakdown devices. ■ Precision Scales Further, a subsurface zener exhibits better temperature ■ Inertial Navigation Systems drift and time stability than even the best band-gap ■ Digital Voltmeters references. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
