Product details

Overview

ADR291WFRZ-RL from Analog Devices is a low-noise, micropower 2.5 V precision voltage reference using XFET® technology, designed for high-accuracy analog signal conditioning in automotive and industrial systems. It delivers ±0.12% initial accuracy, 15 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, 8 μVp-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) noise, and operates from 2.8 V to 15 V supply with only 15 μA max quiescent current.

For engineers reviewing the ADR291WFRZ-RL datasheet, ADR291WFRZ-RL pinout, ADR291WFRZ-RL application, or ADR291WFRZ-RL equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive-grade temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), SOIC_N package compatibility, low-noise performance in battery-powered ADC/DAC references, and pin compatibility with REF02/REF19x series.

Technical Context

The ADR291WFRZ-RL implements an XFET® reference architecture-distinct from bandgap or buried Zener topologies-delivering one-quarter the voltage noise of comparable bandgap references at equal bias current. Its series topology enables stable 2.5 V output regulation across wide input voltage (2.8 V–15 V) and load (0–5 mA) ranges.

It features ultralinear temperature drift behavior, <50 ppm thermal hysteresis, and 50 ppm long-term stability after 1000 hours at 125°C. Line regulation is specified up to 200 ppm/V and load regulation up to 200 ppm/mA over the full automotive temperature range.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
REF192GSZ-REEL2.5 V output, ±0.1% initial accuracy, 20 ppm/°C max tempco, 35 μA supply currentHigher quiescent current limits use in ultra-low-power designs; wider tempco affects wide-temperature accuracyPreferred when tighter initial accuracy is prioritized over noise and power; not pin-compatible
ADR3425ARJZ-R72.5 V output, ±0.1% initial accuracy, 10 ppm/°C max tempco, 100 μA supply current, 10 mA output driveHigher power consumption and larger SOT-23-6 footprint; better tempco but higher noise (12 μVp-p)Selected for improved temperature stability in non-battery applications where board space allows SOT-23

Compared with REF192GSZ-REEL and ADR3425ARJZ-R7, the ADR291WFRZ-RL uniquely balances ultra-low noise (8 μVp-p), micropower operation (15 μA), and automotive qualification-making it optimal for battery-powered precision measurement where both accuracy and longevity are critical.

FAQ

What is the maximum supply voltage for ADR291WFRZ-RL?

The ADR291WFRZ-RL has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of 18 V, with recommended operating range from 2.8 V to 15 V. Exceeding 18 V may cause permanent damage. The device maintains specified performance-including 2.5 V output accuracy and 15 ppm/°C tempco-within the 2.8 V–15 V window across its full −40°C to +125°C temperature range.

Is ADR291WFRZ-RL pin-compatible with REF02 or REF19x devices?

Yes, the ADR291WFRZ-RL is explicitly pin-compatible with REF02 and REF19x series voltage references in the same 8-lead SOIC_N package. Pin assignments (VIN on Pin 2, GND on Pin 4, VOUT on Pin 6) match exactly, and NC pins align. This allows drop-in replacement in existing designs without layout changes, provided supply and load conditions fall within ADR291WFRZ-RL's specifications.

What does the 'W' grade signify in ADR291WFRZ-RL?

The 'W' grade in ADR291WFRZ-RL denotes automotive qualification, specifying operation across −40°C to +125°C and compliance with AEC-Q100 stress testing requirements. It also indicates tighter initial accuracy (±0.12%) compared to the standard ADR291 (±0.332%), lower noise (8 μVp-p vs. typical 10 μVp-p), and enhanced long-term stability (50 ppm vs. 100 ppm after 1000 h at 125°C).

Can ADR291WFRZ-RL drive a 5 kΩ load continuously?

Yes, the ADR291WFRZ-RL can continuously drive a 5 kΩ load (equivalent to 0.5 mA at 2.5 V) with negligible impact on accuracy. Its 5 mA maximum output current and 200 ppm/mA load regulation ensure output deviation remains below ±0.1 mV under this condition. For heavier loads approaching 5 mA, verify thermal derating and PCB copper area per θJA = 158°C/W.

Does ADR291WFRZ-RL require an output capacitor for stability?

No, the ADR291WFRZ-RL is internally compensated and does not require an external output capacitor for stability. However, a 1 μF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VOUT and GND pins is recommended to reduce high-frequency noise and improve transient response-especially in noisy automotive or industrial environments. Avoid tantalum or electrolytic capacitors due to ESR-related instability risks.
