ZRB500
Precision 5V micropower voltage reference
Description
The ZRB500 uses a bandgap circuit design to
achieve a precision micropower voltage
reference of 5.0 volts. The device is available in
small outline surface mount packages, ideal for
applications where space saving is important,
as well as packages for through hole
requirements.
The ZRB500 design provides a stable voltage
without an external capacitor and is stable with
capacitive loads. The ZRB500 is recommended
for operation between 50 A and 15mA and so
is ideally suited to low power and battery
powered applications.
Excellent performance is maintained to an
absolute maximum of 25mA, however the
rugged design and 20 volt processing allows
the reference to withstand transient effects and
currents up to 200mA. Superior switching
capability allows the device to reach stable
operating conditions in only a few
microseconds.
