Product details
Overview
AD586LR from Analog Devices is a precision 5.000 V ±2.5 mV buried Zener voltage reference IC in an 8-lead SOIC package, featuring 5 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over 0°C to 70°C, 100 nV/√Hz spectral noise density, and output capability of sourcing or sinking 10 mA. It serves as a high-stability external reference for 12–16-bit DACs and ADCs in test equipment and data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the AD586LR datasheet, AD586LR pinout, AD586LR application, or AD586LR equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOIC-8 terminal mapping, real-world converter interface use cases, and two validated alternative references with documented performance trade-offs.
Technical Context
The AD586LR uses a proprietary ion-implanted buried Zener diode combined with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve low drift and low noise-superior to band gap references. Its internal buffer amplifier enables ±10 mA load drive while maintaining <100 µV/mA load regulation.
It integrates a dedicated noise reduction pin (Pin 8) that forms a low-pass filter with an external 1 µF capacitor, reducing broadband noise from ~200 µV p-p to ~160 µV p-p. The TRIM pin (Pin 5) supports optional fine adjustment of output voltage by up to ±300 mV without degrading long-term stability or temperature coefficient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.000 V ±2.5 mV at 25°C - ensures initial accuracy suitable for 14-bit converter full-scale calibration. |
| Tempco | 5 ppm/°C max (0°C to 70°C) - guarantees ≤0.35 mV total drift across industrial ambient range. |
| Noise Density | 100 nV/√Hz at 100 Hz - enables low-noise signal chains in precision digitizers without added filtering. |
| Load Drive | ±10 mA sourcing/sinking - supports direct driving of multiple converter reference inputs or op-amp bias networks. |
| Long-Term Stability | 15 ppm/1000 hr - critical for metrology-grade instruments requiring recalibration intervals >1 year. |
| Line Regulation | ±100 µV/V (10.8–36 V input) - maintains output accuracy despite supply rail variation in unregulated systems. |
| Turn-On Time | 60 µs to 0.01% (no CN); 400 ms with 1 µF noise cap - informs power sequencing design in fast-booting systems. |
Pinout & Package
AD586LR is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC package (R-8), compliant with JEDEC MS-012AA, measuring 5.00 mm × 4.00 mm × 1.25 mm with 1.27 mm lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Factory Trim Pad (TP1) | No connection required; internal test point only - must remain floating or grounded via dummy pad. |
| 2 | VIN | Positive supply input (10.8–36 V); powers internal Zener and buffer - requires local 0.1 µF decoupling. |
| 3 | Factory Trim Pad (TP1) | No connection required; internal test point only - must remain floating or grounded via dummy pad. |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground reference for Zener and amplifier - must connect to clean system AGND plane. |
| 5 | TRIM | Optional fine-adjust node; ±300 mV offset possible with external resistor divider - enables binary-scaled references (e.g., 5.12 V). |
| 6 | VOUT | Regulated 5.000 V output; capable of sourcing/sinking 10 mA - connects directly to converter REF pins. |
| 7 | Factory Trim Pad (TP1) | No connection required; internal test point only - must remain floating or grounded via dummy pad. |
| 8 | NOISE REDUCTION | Filter node for external 1 µF capacitor to GND - reduces high-frequency noise by ~20% without affecting DC accuracy. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed buried Zener | Enables 5 ppm/°C tempco and 15 ppm/1000 hr stability - eliminates need for external compensation networks. |
| Dedicated noise reduction pin | Supports 1 µF capacitor to cut broadband noise by ~20% - preserves DC accuracy while improving SNR in sensitive ADC front-ends. |
| Output trim capability | Adjusts VOUT by ±300 mV via Pin 5 - allows precise matching to system-level calibration standards or non-5 V binary scaling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF5050AIDR | 5 ppm/°C max, 3.8 µV p-p (0.1–10 Hz), SOIC-8, but requires 3.3 V–18 V supply and has 3.5 mA quiescent current. | Better low-frequency noise, but higher IQ limits battery-powered use; no noise reduction pin. | Select REF5050AIDR when ultra-low 0.1–10 Hz noise dominates system error budget and supply headroom permits. |
| ADR445ARMZ | 3 ppm/°C max, 1.8 µV p-p (0.1–10 Hz), SOIC-8, but rated only to 125°C junction and lacks TRIM pin. | Superior tempco and noise, but no output adjust capability; not qualified for extended temperature operation beyond +125°C. | Select ADR445ARMZ where maximum temperature stability is critical and fine-trim functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with REF5050AIDR and ADR445ARMZ, AD586LR provides unique value through its integrated noise reduction pin and ±300 mV trim range-enabling both noise-sensitive and calibration-flexible designs without external components, while maintaining proven reliability in long-lifecycle industrial deployments.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed initial accuracy of the AD586LR at 25°C?
The AD586LR is laser trimmed to guarantee an output voltage of 5.000 V ±2.5 mV at 25°C, corresponding to ±50 ppm accuracy. This specification is fully tested and guaranteed across all production units, making it suitable for 14-bit system calibration without post-manufacturing trimming.
Can the AD586LR drive multiple ADC reference inputs simultaneously?
Yes, the AD586LR can source or sink up to ±10 mA, enabling direct connection to multiple converter reference pins-such as dual 12-bit SAR ADCs or a 16-bit sigma-delta ADC with auxiliary analog blocks-without external buffering, provided total load current remains within ±10 mA and layout minimizes shared impedance.
How does the noise reduction pin (Pin 8) function on the AD586LR?
The AD586LR noise reduction pin (Pin 8) connects internally to the Zener cell's bias network. Adding a 1 µF capacitor from Pin 8 to GND forms a low-pass filter that reduces broadband noise (e.g., 1 MHz bandwidth) from ~200 µV p-p to ~160 µV p-p, with no impact on DC accuracy or temperature coefficient.
Is the AD586LR compatible with negative reference configurations?
Yes, the AD586LR can generate a precision −5.000 V output by grounding VOUT (Pin 6), connecting VIN (Pin 2) to +6 V to +30 V, and routing GND (Pin 4) through a current-setting resistor to a negative supply (e.g., −15 V). Net current through the device must be maintained between 2.5 mA and 10 mA for specified performance.
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the AD586LR?
The AD586LR supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 36 V on VIN (Pin 2), with recommended operation between 10.8 V and 36 V. Operation below 10.8 V may cause output dropout; above 36 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings in the AD586 Rev. G datasheet.
