Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., T for reel) against your bill of materials, as packaging varies. Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors due to potential supply constraints. Ensure the selected package type matches your PCB footprint requirements before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when ultra-low noise and high precision are critical. Compare the 2 PPM/C temperature coefficient against system thermal drift requirements. Verify that the 10 mA load capability meets the downstream circuit demands without exceeding the maximum shunt current limits defined in the datasheet.
