LT1460BIN8-2.5#PBF

Voltage Reference Overview

The LT1460BIN8-2.5#PBF is a micropower precision series voltage reference manufactured by Analog Devices Inc., housed in an 8-lead plastic DIP package. It provides a fixed output voltage of 2.5V with an initial accuracy tolerance of ±0.1%. The device operates within an industrial temperature range of –40°C to 85°C and features a maximum temperature coefficient of 10ppm/°C. Key electrical specifications include a maximum supply current of 130µA, a minimum output sourcing current capability of 20mA, and a maximum input voltage rating of 30V.

Voltage Reference Feature Summary

• Utilizes curvature compensation and trimmed thin-film resistors for high accuracy and low drift
• Capable of supplying up to 20mA load current without requiring an external output compensation capacitor
• Includes reverse battery protection to prevent damage from incorrect polarity connections

Voltage Reference Applications

• Handheld Instruments
• Precision Regulators
• A/D and D/A Converters

Voltage Reference Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix BIN8 corresponds to the required industrial temperature grade (–40°C to 85°C) and PDIP-8 package configuration. Confirm lead-free finish compliance (#PBF) matches environmental requirements. Ensure the 2.5V output variant aligns with system design needs before procurement.

Voltage Reference Selection Notes

Select this component when industrial temperature stability and high precision are required alongside low power consumption. The 20mA output current capability supports direct driving of moderate loads, while the absence of required output capacitors simplifies layout for fast settling applications. Verify input voltage headroom meets the minimum differential requirement.
