Overview for voltage references
Our broad portfolio of series, shunt and current voltage references features low temperature coefficient, precise initial accuracy, low noise and excellent long-term stability performance for a wide variety of applications, such as data conversion and signal conditioning. Voltage references are also commonly used as voltage monitors, current limiters and programmable current sources.
Series voltage references
Additional feature capabilities such as low-IQ shutdown enable pin, noise-reduction/TRIM pin, and dual-output to achieve lower power consumption and higher precision
Shunt voltage references
Fixed and adjustable references of various accuracy and voltage levels for systems requiring wide VIN and negative or floating references
Current references
Floating dual and adjustable current source solutions for system protection and sensing
Browse by key voltage reference features
High precision
Low-drift, high-accuracy reference voltage ICs that are stable across variable conditions such as: temperature, input voltage and output load
AEC-Q100 qualification
Many of our voltage references are qualified for use in automotive applications. This is indicated by a “-Q1” suffix.
