The new XFET architecture offers significant performance improvements over traditional bandgap and Buried Zener-based references. Improvements include: one quarter the voltage noise output of bandgap references operating at the same current, very low and ultralinear temperature drift, low thermal hysteresis and excellent long-term stability. The ADR29x family are series voltage references providing stable and accurate output voltages from supplies as low as 2.35 V for the ADR290. Output voltage options are 2.048 V, 2.5 V, and 4.096 V for the ADR290, ADR291, and ADR292 respectively. Quiescent current is only 12 µA, making these devices ideal for batterypowered instrumentation. Three electrical grades are available offering initial output accuracies of ± 2 mV, ± 3 mV and ± 6 mV max for the ADR290 and ADR291, and ± 3 mV, ± 4 mV and ± 6 mV max for the ADR292. Temperature coefficients for the three grades are 8 ppm/°C, 15 ppm/°C, and 25 ppm/°C max, respectively. Line regulation and load regulation are typically 30 ppm/V and 30 ppm/mA, maintaining the reference’s overall high performance. For a device with 5.0 V output, refer to the ADR293 data sheet. The ADR290, ADR291, and ADR292 references are specified over the extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. Devices are available in the 8-lead SOIC and 8-lead TSSOP packages.

B –5– ADR290/ADR291/ADR292 PARAMETER DEFINITION Thermal Hysteresis Line Regulation Thermal hysteresis is defined as the change of output voltage after the device is cycled through temperature from +25°C to –40°C to +85°C and back to +25°C. This is a typical value from a sample of parts put through such a cycle. The change in output voltage due to a specified change in input voltage. It includes the effects of self-heating. Line regulation is expressed in either percent-per-volt, parts-per-million-pervolt, or microvolts-per-volt change in input voltage. VO – HYS = VO (25°C ) – VO _ TC Load Regulation VO – HYS [ ppm] = The change in output voltage due to a specified change in load current. It includes the effects of self-heating. Load regulation is expressed in either microvolts-per-milliampere, parts-permillion-per-milliampere, or ohms of dc output resistance. VO (25°C ) – VO _ TC × 106 VO (25°C ) Where VO (25°C) = VO at 25°C Long-Term Stability VO–TC = VO at 25°C after temperature cycle at +25°C to –40°C to +85°C and back to +25°C Typical shift of output voltage at 25°C on a sample of parts subjected to high-temperature operating life test of 1000 hours at 125°C. ∆VO = VO (t0 ) – VO (t1 ) V (t ) – VO (t1 ) ∆VO [ ppm] = O 0 × 106 VO (t0 ) Where VO (t0 ) = VO at 25°C at time 0 VO (t1 ) = VO at 25°C after 1000 hours operation at 125°C Temperature Coefficient The change of output voltage over the operating temperature change and normalized by the output voltage at 25°C, expressed in ppm/°C. The equation follows: TCVO [ ppm / °C ] = VO (T2 ) – VO (T1 ) × 106 VO (25°C ) × (T2 – T1 ) Where VO (25°C) = VO at 25°C VO(T1 ) = VO at Temperature 1 VO(T2 ) = VO at Temperature 2 NC = No Connect (There are in fact internal connections at NC pins which are reserved for manufacturing purposes.

Typical Hysteresis for the ADR291 Product –11– ADR290/ADR291/ADR292 THEORY OF OPERATION Device Power Dissipation Considerations The ADR29x series of references uses a new reference generation technique known as XFET (eXtra implanted junction FET). This technique yields a reference with low noise, low supply current and very low thermal hysteresis. The ADR29x family of references is guaranteed to deliver load currents to 5 mA with an input voltage that ranges from 2.7 V to 15 V (minimum supply voltage depends on output voltage option). When these devices are used in applications with large input voltages, care should be exercised to avoid exceeding the published specifications for maximum power dissipation or junction temperature that could result in premature device failure. The following formula should be used to calculate a device’s maximum junction temperature or dissipation: The core of the XFET reference consists of two junction fieldeffect transistors, one of which has an extra channel implant to raise its pinch-off voltage. By running the two JFETs at the same drain current, the difference in pinch-off voltage can be amplified and used to form a highly stable voltage reference. The intrinsic reference voltage is around 0.5 V with a negative temperature coefficient of about –120 ppm/K. This slope is essentially locked to the dielectric constant of silicon and can be closely compensated by adding a correction term generated in the same fashion as the proportional-to-temperature (PTAT) term used to compensate bandgap references. The big advantage over a bandgap reference is that the intrinsic temperature coefficient is some thirty times lower (therefore less correction is needed) and this results in much lower noise since most of the noise of a bandgap reference comes from the temperature compensation circuitry. The simplified schematic below shows the basic topology of the ADR29x series. The temperature correction term is provided by a current source with value designed to be proportional to absolute temperature. The general equation is: PD = In this equation, TJ and TA are the junction and ambient temperatures, respectively, PD is the device power dissipation, and θJA is the device package thermal resistance. Basic Voltage Reference Connections References, in general, require a bypass capacitor connected from the VOUT pin to the GND pin. The circuit in Figure 2 illustrates the basic configuration for the ADR29x family of references. Note that the decoupling capacitors are not required for circuit stability.

Basic Voltage Reference Configuration Noise Performance The noise generated by the ADR29x family of references is typically less than 12 µV p-p over the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band. TPC 21 shows the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz noise of the ADR290 which is only 6 µV p-p. The noise measurement is made with a bandpass filter made of a 2-pole high-pass filter with a corner frequency at 0.1 Hz and a 2-pole low-pass filter with a corner frequency at 10 Hz. Turn-On Time * VP Upon application of power (cold start), the time required for the output voltage to reach its final value within a specified error band is defined as the turn-on settling time. Two components normally associated with this are the time for the active circuits to settle, and the time for the thermal gradients on the chip to stabilize. TPC 28 shows the turn-on settling time for the ADR291. VOUT R1 IPTAT R2 R3 GND * EXTRA CHANNEL IMPLANT R1 + R2 + R3 VOUT = VP + IPTAT R3 R1 Figure 1.

B ADR290/ADR291/ADR292 APPLICATIONS SECTION A Negative Precision Reference without Precision Resistors VIN In many current-output CMOS DAC applications, where the output signal voltage must be of the same polarity as the reference voltage, it is often required to reconfigure a current-switching DAC into a voltage-switching DAC through the use of a 1.25 V reference, an op amp and a pair of resistors. Using a currentswitching DAC directly requires the need for an additional operational amplifier at the output to reinvert the signal. A negative voltage reference is then desirable from the point that an additional operational amplifier is not required for either reinversion (current-switching mode) or amplification (voltageswitching mode) of the DAC output voltage. In general, any positive voltage reference can be converted into a negative voltage reference through the use of an operational amplifier and a pair of matched resistors in an inverting configuration. The disadvantage to that approach is that the largest single source of error in the circuit is the relative matching of the resistors used. The circuit illustrated in Figure 3 avoids the need for tightly matched resistors with the use of an active integrator circuit. In this circuit, the output of the voltage reference provides the input drive for the integrator. The integrator, to maintain circuit equilibrium adjusts its output to establish the proper relationship between the reference’s VOUT and GND. Thus, any negative output voltage desired can be chosen by simply substituting for the appropriate reference IC. One caveat with this approach should be mentioned: although rail-to-rail output amplifiers work best in the application, these operational amplifiers require a finite amount (mV) of headroom when required to provide any load current. The choice for the circuit’s negative supply should take this issue into account. ADR29x VOUT R1 GND 1F RSET ISY ADJUST P1 IOUT RL Figure 4.

A Negative Precision Voltage Reference Uses No Precision Resistors A Precision Current Source Many times in low power applications, the need arises for a precision current source that can operate on low supply voltages. As shown in Figure 4, any one of the devices in the ADR29x family of references can be configured as a precision current source. The circuit configuration illustrated is a floating current source with a grounded load. The reference’s output voltage is bootstrapped across RSET, which sets the output current into the load. With this configuration, circuit precision is maintained for load currents in the range from the reference’s supply current, typically 12 µA to approximately 5 mA. REV. B In many portable instrumentation applications, where PC board cost and area go hand-in-hand, circuit interconnects are very often of dimensionally minimum width. These narrow lines can cause large voltage drops if the voltage reference is required to provide load currents to various functions. In fact, a circuit’s interconnects can exhibit a typical line resistance of 0.45 mΩ/square (1 oz. Cu, for example). Force and sense connections also referred to as Kelvin connections, offer a convenient method of eliminating the effects of voltage drops in circuit wires. Load currents flowing through wiring resistance produce an error (VERROR = R ⫻ IL ) at the load. However, the Kelvin connection of Figure 6, overcomes the problem by including the wiring resistance within the forcing loop of the op amp. Since the op amp senses the load voltage, op amp loop control forces the output to compensate for the wiring error and to produce the correct voltage at the load. –13– ADR290/ADR291/ADR292 VIN Voltage Regulator For Portable Equipment RLW VIN ADR29x The ADR29x family of references is ideal for providing a stable, low cost and low power reference voltage in portable equipment power supplies. Figure 8 shows how the ADR290/ADR291/ ADR292 can be used in a voltage regulator that not only has low output noise (as compared to switch mode design) and low power, but also a very fast recovery after current surges. Some precautions should be taken in the selection of the output capacitors. Too high an ESR (Effective Series Resistance) could endanger the stability of the circuit. A solid tantalum capacitor, 16 V or higher, and an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, 10 V or higher, are recommended for C1 and C2, respectively. Also, the path from the ground side of C1 and C2 to the ground side of R1 should be kept as short as possible. +VOUT SENSE RLW A1 VOUT +VOUT FORCE RL 1F 100k GND A1 = 1/2 OP295 Figure 6. Advantage of Kelvin Connection Low Power, Low Voltage Reference For Data Converters The ADR29x family has a number of features that makes it ideally suited for use with A/D and D/A converters. The low supply voltage required makes it possible to use the ADR290 and ADR291 with today’s converters that run on 3 V supplies without having to add a higher supply voltage for the reference. The low quiescent current (12 µA max) and low noise, tight temperature coefficient, combined with the high accuracy of the ADR29x makes it ideal for low power applications such as hand-held, battery operated equipment. One such ADC for which the ADR291 is well suited is the AD7701. Figure 7 shows the ADR291 used as the reference for this converter. The AD7701 is a 16-bit A/D converter with onchip digital filtering intended for the measurement of wide dynamic range, low frequency signals such as those representing chemical, physical or biological processes. It contains a charge balancing (sigma-delta) ADC, calibration microcontroller with on-chip static RAM, a clock oscillator and a serial communications port.
