LT1460ACS8-10#PBF

Voltage Reference Overview

The LT1460ACS8-10#PBF is a micropower precision series voltage reference manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It provides a fixed output voltage of 10V with an initial accuracy of ±0.075% and a maximum temperature coefficient of 10ppm/°C. The device operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and requires a minimum input-to-output differential of 0.9V, supporting input voltages up to 20V. Supply current is typically 270µA with a maximum of 360µA. It features reverse battery protection and does not require an output compensation capacitor.

Voltage Reference Feature Summary

Voltage Reference Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix #PBF indicates lead-free finish and RoHS compliance. Confirm the 'S8' designation corresponds to the 8-lead plastic SO package. Ensure the 'AC' grade matches the required 0.075% accuracy and 10ppm/°C drift specifications for the target application environment.

Voltage Reference Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 10V reference with high precision is required in a surface-mount format. The low supply current makes it suitable for battery-powered applications where power dissipation must be minimized compared to shunt references. Verify that the 0.9V dropout voltage fits within the available headroom of the system power supply.

Voltage Reference Part Context

This part belongs to the LT1460 Micropower Precision Series Reference Family. The family offers various output voltages and packages including MSOP, SO, PDIP, TO-92, and SOT-23. The LT1460 combines high accuracy and low drift with small package size and low power dissipation, distinguishing it from older shunt-style references.
