Product details
Overview
ADR03BUJ-R2 from Analog Devices is a precision 2.5 V band gap voltage reference in a 5-lead TSOT package, featuring ±0.2% initial accuracy, 9 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient (B grade), and 5 µVp-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) low-noise output. It operates from 4.5 V to 36 V supply and delivers up to 10 mA, supporting high-resolution ADCs and industrial sensor signal chains.
For engineers reviewing the ADR03BUJ-R2 datasheet, ADR03BUJ-R2 pinout, ADR03BUJ-R2 application, or ADR03BUJ-R2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultracompact TSOT-5 footprint, integrated TEMP pin for on-chip temperature monitoring (550 mV @ 25°C, 1.96 mV/°C), TRIM capability for fine output adjustment, and −40°C to +125°C extended industrial operating range.
Technical Context
The ADR03BUJ-R2 implements a laser-trimmed band gap core with internal curvature correction, enabling stable 2.5 V output across wide supply (4.5 V–36 V) and temperature (−40°C to +125°C) ranges. Its B-grade specification guarantees ≤9 ppm/°C tempco in the TSOT-5 package and supports direct replacement of REF03 in space-constrained designs.
It integrates dedicated pins for voltage trimming (TRIM), temperature sensing (TEMP), and unregulated input (VIN), with GND and VOUT completing the 5-terminal interface. No external capacitor is required for stability, and the device achieves 70 ppm/mA load regulation and 30 ppm/V line regulation over full temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.500 V ±2.5 mV (B grade); enables precise 12-/16-bit DAC/ADC biasing without calibration. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.1% (±2.5 mV); reduces system-level gain error in precision measurement front-ends. |
| Tempco (max) | 9 ppm/°C (TSOT-5, B grade); contributes ≤0.9 mV drift over −40°C to +85°C ambient. |
| Voltage Noise | 5 µVp-p (0.1 Hz–10 Hz); minimizes quantization noise in 24-bit delta-sigma converters. |
| Supply Range | 4.5 V to 36 V; allows direct connection to automotive battery rails or industrial 24 V systems. |
| Output Current | 10 mA sink/source; drives op-amp buffers, SAR ADC references, or multiple parallel loads. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.65–1.0 mA; supports low-power portable instrumentation and always-on monitoring nodes. |
Pinout & Package
ADR03BUJ-R2 uses the 5-lead TSOT-5 (UJ-5) surface-mount package (2.1 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.6 mm), optimized for high-density PCB layouts. Thermal resistance θJA = 230°C/W reflects standard JEDEC 2-layer board mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Unregulated Input Supply | Accepts 4.5 V–36 V; dropout voltage ≤2 V ensures operation even at low input margins. |
| 2 - GND | Analog Ground Reference | Common return for reference output, trim network, and temperature sensor; requires low-impedance plane. |
| 3 - VOUT | Precision Output Terminal | Stable 2.5 V source; capable of sourcing/sinking 10 mA with <70 ppm/mA load regulation. |
| 4 - TRIM | Output Voltage Adjustment Node | Connects to external resistor divider for ±0.5% fine-tuning; high-impedance input draws <100 nA. |
| 5 - TEMP | Temperature Sensor Output | Provides 550 mV @ 25°C with 1.96 mV/°C slope; enables on-chip die temperature monitoring without external sensors. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR03AKSZ-REEL7 | SOIC-8 package, same B-grade specs but 3 ppm/°C typical tempco (vs. 9 ppm/°C max in TSOT); larger footprint, higher θJA (130°C/W). | Preferred where board space permits and lower tempco is prioritized over size; not suitable for ultra-thin modules. | Select when long-term stability (<50 ppm/1000 hrs) and minimal thermal drift outweigh compactness requirements. |
| REF03GSZ-REEL | Legacy 8-lead SOIC; pin-compatible with ADR03 SOIC versions but lacks TEMP pin and has 25 ppm/°C max tempco (C grade). | Used in legacy designs upgrading from REF03; no on-chip temperature sensing capability. | Choose only for drop-in replacement in existing REF03-based boards; avoid for new designs requiring TEMP functionality or tighter tempco. |
Compared with ADR03AKSZ-REEL7 and REF03GSZ-REEL, the ADR03BUJ-R2 uniquely delivers B-grade precision in the smallest possible package while integrating temperature monitoring-enabling smaller, smarter, and more thermally aware reference subsystems without sacrificing accuracy.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the ADR03BUJ-R2?
The ADR03BUJ-R2 is fully specified from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature, with all electrical parameters-including output voltage, tempco, and load regulation-guaranteed across this extended industrial range. This makes ADR03BUJ-R2 suitable for under-hood automotive, factory floor, and outdoor metering applications where thermal extremes are routine.
Does the ADR03BUJ-R2 require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, the ADR03BUJ-R2 is internally compensated and does not require an external output capacitor for stability. It remains stable driving capacitive loads up to 100 nF, simplifying design and reducing bill-of-materials cost. However, a 0.1 µF ceramic input capacitor is recommended near the VIN pin for improved ripple rejection.
How is the TEMP pin used in the ADR03BUJ-R2?
The TEMP pin on the ADR03BUJ-R2 outputs a calibrated analog voltage (550 mV ±10 mV at 25°C) with a linear sensitivity of 1.96 mV/°C, enabling direct junction temperature monitoring. It requires no external components and can be read by any ADC channel-providing real-time thermal feedback for system diagnostics or derating logic without adding discrete sensors.
Can the ADR03BUJ-R2 replace the REF03 in existing designs?
The ADR03BUJ-R2 is not pin-compatible with the REF03 due to its 5-lead TSOT-5 package versus REF03's 8-lead SOIC. However, the ADR03 in SOIC-8 (e.g., ADR03AKSZ-REEL7) is a direct pin-for-pin replacement for REF03 with added TEMP functionality. For new designs prioritizing miniaturization, ADR03BUJ-R2 offers superior performance per mm² but requires PCB redesign.
What is the typical voltage noise performance of the ADR03BUJ-R2?
The ADR03BUJ-R2 delivers 5 µVp-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) low-frequency voltage noise, corresponding to 2 ppmp-p of its 2.5 V output. This performance is critical for high-resolution delta-sigma ADCs and precision weigh-scale systems where noise directly limits effective resolution and measurement repeatability.
