MAX6250AEPA

Overview

The MAX6250AEPA+ is a low-noise, precision voltage reference featuring buried-zener technology. It provides a fixed 5.000V output with ±0.02% initial accuracy and a maximum temperature coefficient of 3.0ppm/°C. The device operates within an input voltage range of 8V to 36V and supports source/sink currents up to 15mA. It utilizes an 8-pin Plastic DIP package and functions across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Buried-zener technology ensures lowest noise performance
• Optional external trimming and noise reduction capabilities
• Stable operation for all capacitive loads

Applications

• High-resolution analog-to-digital converters
• Digital-to-analog converters
• High-accuracy industrial process control systems
• Precision current sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EPA' confirms the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range and 8-pin PDIP package configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the '+' designation in the part number. Check manufacturer discontinuance notifications as availability may be limited for legacy components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high stability and low noise are required for 16-bit data conversion systems. Ensure the input voltage remains between 8V and 36V. Consider the optional trim pin if precise voltage adjustment is necessary, or the NR pin for wideband noise reduction applications.

Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX6225/MAX6241/MAX6250 family of low-noise precision voltage references. While the MAX6225 outputs 2.5V and the MAX6241 outputs 4.096V, the MAX6250 is specifically configured for a 5.000V output. All members share similar electrical characteristics and packaging options.
