LT1460DCS8-5#PBF

Voltage Reference Overview

The LT1460DCS8-5#PBF is a micropower precision series voltage reference manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It provides a nominal output voltage of 5V with an initial accuracy of ±0.10%. The device operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C and features a maximum temperature coefficient of 20ppm/°C. It supports a minimum output current of 20mA and draws a typical supply current of 175µA at the 5V setting. The component utilizes curvature compensation and trimmed thin-film resistors for high stability.

Voltage Reference Feature Summary

• Utilizes curvature compensation and trimmed precision thin-film resistors to achieve high output accuracy and low drift.
• Capable of sourcing up to 20mA of load current while maintaining excellent line regulation characteristics.
• Operates stably with capacitive loads without requiring an external output compensation capacitor.
• Includes reverse battery protection that prevents current conduction during reverse connections.

Voltage Reference Applications

• Precision regulators
