Product details
Overview
ADR4525DEZ-R7 from Analog Devices is an ultralow noise, high accuracy voltage reference IC delivering a precise 2.500 V output with ±0.02% initial error (B/C/D grade), 0.8 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient (D grade, 0°C to 70°C), and 1.25 μV p-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) output noise - deployed in precision ADC biasing, battery monitoring, and medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the ADR4525DEZ-R7 datasheet, ADR4525DEZ-R7 pinout, ADR4525DEZ-R7 application, or ADR4525DEZ-R7 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-8 package details, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options for high-stability analog signal chains.
Technical Context
The ADR4525DEZ-R7 uses an advanced core topology optimized for minimal thermally induced hysteresis and long-term drift (8 ppm typical at 4500 hours), enabling stable reference performance across temperature cycling and extended operation. Its low dropout voltage (500 mV at 2 mA) and 950 μA max quiescent current support portable and low-power industrial systems.
Designed for precision data acquisition, it features dual ground paths (GNDSENSE and GNDFORCE) and force-sense outputs (VOUTFORCE/VOUTSENSE) in LCC-8 packaging to reject PCB trace resistance and load-induced errors - critical for 24-bit SAR and delta-sigma converter interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.500 V ±0.02% (B/C/D grade) - enables direct interface with 2.5 V ADC references without scaling. |
| Tempco (D grade) | 0.8 ppm/°C (box method, 0°C to 70°C) - ensures ≤1.6 ppm total drift over commercial temperature range. |
| Output Noise | 1.25 μV p-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) - supports <20-bit ENOB in high-resolution data converters. |
| Quiescent Current | 950 μA max - allows operation from coin-cell or energy-harvesting supplies in portable sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 500 mV at 2 mA load - permits use with 3.0 V input rails while maintaining regulation. |
| Ripple Rejection | 90 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching regulator noise coupling into precision analog stages. |
| Long-Term Drift | 8 ppm typical at 4500 hours - reduces calibration frequency in field-deployed test equipment. |
Pinout & Package
ADR4525DEZ-R7 is supplied in an 8-lead LCC (Leadless Chip Carrier) package, RoHS-compliant and moisture sensitivity level MSL-1. The package supports reflow soldering and provides enhanced thermal performance (θJA = 120°C/W on 2-layer JEDEC board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NIC | Not internally connected - left floating or grounded per layout best practice; no functional role. |
| 2 | VIN | Main input supply connection - accepts 3 V to 15 V; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling. |
| 3 | GNDFORCE | Power ground return path - connects to system power ground plane to minimize IR drop. |
| 4 | GNDSENSE | Sense ground - routed directly to load ground to eliminate PCB trace resistance error in feedback loop. |
| 5 | NIC | Not internally connected - no electrical function; may be used as thermal pad anchor. |
| 6 | VOUTSENSE | Reference output sense node - connected directly to ADC reference input to cancel trace resistance error. |
| 7 | VOUTFORCE | Reference output drive node - supplies current to load; paired with VOUTSENSE for Kelvin sensing. |
| 8 | DNC | Do not connect - electrically isolated; must remain unconnected to avoid malfunction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Kelvin force-sense output architecture | Eliminates voltage error from PCB trace resistance between reference and load, enabling true 2.5 V delivery at ADC input. |
| Ultralow 0.1 Hz–10 Hz noise | 1.25 μV p-p ensures <0.1 LSB error in 24-bit, 1 MSPS SAR ADCs operating at full scale. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR441ARMZ-R7 | 2.5 V output, 1.5 ppm/°C max tempco (B grade), 2.2 μV p-p noise, SOIC-8 only. | Lacks force-sense outputs and LCC package; higher noise limits use in >20-bit systems. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs ultra-low noise or Kelvin sensing needs. |
| REF5025IDR | 2.5 V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco (A grade), 1.6 μV p-p noise, SOIC-8, 1.2 mA IQ. | No force-sense architecture; higher quiescent current limits battery-powered use. | Prefer for TI-based designs where ecosystem compatibility and SPICE model availability are prioritized. |
Compared with ADR4525DEZ-R7, ADR441ARMZ-R7 trades noise and tempco performance for lower cost and broader distribution, while REF5025IDR offers tighter integration with TI's precision amplifier portfolio but lacks the Kelvin sensing capability essential for sub-millivolt accuracy in production test systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for ADR4525DEZ-R7?
The ADR4525DEZ-R7 is rated for 0°C to +70°C operation (D grade). It is not specified for −40°C to +125°C operation - that range applies only to A and B grade variants such as ADR4525BRZ. Using ADR4525DEZ-R7 outside its 0°C to 70°C range may result in increased tempco and long-term drift beyond datasheet limits.
Does ADR4525DEZ-R7 support force-sense connections, and how are they implemented?
Yes, ADR4525DEZ-R7 implements force-sense via dedicated pins: VOUTFORCE (Pin 7) delivers regulated current to the load, while VOUTSENSE (Pin 6) provides a high-impedance feedback path directly to the load's reference input. GNDSENSE (Pin 4) completes the Kelvin loop by returning to the load's ground node - collectively eliminating PCB trace resistance error.
What is the typical long-term drift specification for ADR4525DEZ-R7?
ADR4525DEZ-R7 exhibits 8 ppm typical long-term drift after 4500 hours of operation at 25°C. This value is measured under controlled conditions and reflects the device's inherent stability - significantly lower than the 51 ppm typical observed in A/B/C grade variants of the same family.
Can ADR4525DEZ-R7 be used with a 3.0 V supply rail?
Yes, ADR4525DEZ-R7 operates with a minimum input voltage of 3.0 V. Its dropout voltage is 500 mV at 2 mA load, meaning it maintains regulation down to 3.0 V input when delivering 2.5 V output - making it compatible with standard 3.3 V or 3.0 V system rails with appropriate margin.
Is ADR4525DEZ-R7 pin-compatible with other members of the ADR45xx family?
No, ADR4525DEZ-R7 is not pin-compatible with SOIC-8 variants like ADR4525BRZ. It uses an 8-lead LCC package with distinct pin functions including GNDFORCE, GNDSENSE, VOUTFORCE, and VOUTSENSE - requiring unique PCB layout and routing versus SOIC-packaged versions.
