Product details
Overview
ADR4550CRZ-R7 from Analog Devices is a precision 5.000 V ultralow-noise voltage reference in an 8-lead SOIC package, rated for −40°C to +125°C operation (B grade), with ±0.02% initial error, 2 ppm/°C temperature coefficient (box method), and 2.8 μV p-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) output noise - deployed in high-resolution ADC biasing and automotive battery monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADR4550CRZ-R7 datasheet, ADR4550CRZ-R7 pinout, ADR4550CRZ-R7 application, or ADR4550CRZ-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 5.000 V output accuracy over industrial temperature range, low dropout (300 mV at 2 mA), 950 μA max quiescent current, and SOIC-8 compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes.
Technical Context
The ADR4550CRZ-R7 employs an advanced buried-zener core topology optimized for minimal thermal hysteresis and long-term stability, achieving 8 ppm typical drift at 4500 hours and <±13 ppm output hysteresis across full temperature cycling. Its dual-ground architecture (GND and NIC pins) isolates sensing from force paths to maintain load regulation fidelity under dynamic current conditions.
Designed for high-precision analog signal chains, it delivers 90 dB ripple rejection at 1 kHz and supports up to ±10 mA output current while maintaining sub-ppm/V line regulation and ≤80 ppm/mA load regulation - enabling direct interface with SAR and sigma-delta ADCs without external buffering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.000 V ±0.02% (±1 mV) - enables 16-bit+ ADC full-scale accuracy without calibration. |
| Tempco (Box Method) | 2 ppm/°C (−40°C to +125°C, B grade) - ensures ≤±0.25 mV drift over full industrial range. |
| Output Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 2.8 μV p-p - contributes <0.0001 LSB noise to 24-bit 5 V-range converters. |
| Quiescent Current | 950 μA max - supports battery-powered instrumentation with multi-year runtime. |
| Dropout Voltage | 300 mV at 2 mA load - allows operation from 5.3 V supply, easing LDO selection. |
| Ripple Rejection | 90 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching regulator noise coupling into reference path. |
| Long-Term Drift | 51 ppm at 4500 hours - predicts <0.26 mV output shift over 5-year field deployment. |
Pinout & Package
ADR4550CRZ-R7 is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package (JEDEC MS-012AA, 150 mil width) with exposed pad option not specified; thermal resistance θJA = 120°C/W on 2-layer JEDEC board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NIC | Not internally connected - leave unconnected or tie to GND for mechanical stability only. |
| 2 | VIN | Input voltage connection - requires 5.1 V to 15 V supply with ≥100 nF local decoupling. |
| 3 | NIC | Not internally connected - no electrical function; avoid routing signals nearby. |
| 4 | GND | Power ground reference - connect directly to low-impedance system ground plane. |
| 5 | NIC | Not internally connected - electrically isolated; treat as floating copper. |
| 6 | VOUT | Regulated 5.000 V output - route with short, wide trace to ADC reference input. |
| 7 | NIC | Not internally connected - no internal bond wire; do not use for thermal relief. |
| 8 | DNC | Do not connect - internal test node; floating connection prevents parametric shift. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow 0.1–10 Hz noise | 2.8 μV p-p - preserves ENOB in precision data acquisition front-ends. |
| B-grade tempco performance | 2 ppm/°C box-method - eliminates need for software temperature compensation in embedded systems. |
| Low dropout at full load | 300 mV at 2 mA - enables single-supply designs using 5.5 V rails without headroom penalty. |
| High PSRR | 90 dB at 1 kHz - rejects noise from shared DC/DC converters in mixed-signal PCBs. |
| Robust long-term stability | 51 ppm drift at 4500 hours - meets automotive and industrial field-reliability requirements. |
Applications
| Precision Data Acquisition | Automotive Battery Monitoring |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF5050IDR | 5.0 V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco (−40°C to +125°C), 3.8 μV p-p noise, SOIC-8. | Higher noise and looser tempco - suitable where cost sensitivity outweighs 16-bit+ ADC needs. | Prefer ADR4550CRZ-R7 when sub-3 μV p-p noise and 2 ppm/°C stability are required. |
| LT6655IMS5-5#TRPBF | 5.0 V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco, 2.5 μV p-p noise, SOT-23-5; 10 mA sink capability. | Smaller footprint but limited to 5 mA source; no NIC/DNC pin isolation - less robust against layout-induced errors. | Choose ADR4550CRZ-R7 for SOIC-8 compatibility, superior long-term drift (51 vs. 70 ppm), and dedicated GND/VOUT separation. |
Compared with REF5050IDR and LT6655IMS5-5#TRPBF, ADR4550CRZ-R7 delivers the lowest combined noise-tempco-drift profile in SOIC-8, making it optimal for metrology-grade systems where reference-induced error must remain below 0.005% of full scale.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for ADR4550CRZ-R7?
The ADR4550CRZ-R7 is specified for −40°C to +125°C operation per its B-grade rating. This range is validated across all key parameters including initial error, temperature coefficient, load regulation, and long-term drift - ensuring reliable performance in under-hood automotive and industrial control environments where ambient extremes occur.
Does ADR4550CRZ-R7 require external capacitors for stability?
Yes, ADR4550CRZ-R7 requires a minimum 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor on VOUT and recommends 0.1 µF on VIN for stability and noise suppression. The datasheet specifies stable operation with load capacitance from 0.1 µF to 100 µF; larger values improve low-frequency noise rejection but increase turn-on settling time to 160 µs.
Can ADR4550CRZ-R7 drive an ADC reference input directly?
Yes, ADR4550CRZ-R7 can directly drive most precision ADC reference inputs, delivering ±10 mA output current and maintaining 2.8 μV p-p noise. Its low output impedance (<1 Ω at DC) and 90 dB PSRR ensure minimal interaction with switched-capacitor sampling networks - verified in typical applications with AD7768 and ADS127L01.
What is the meaning of NIC and DNC pins on ADR4550CRZ-R7?
On ADR4550CRZ-R7, pins 1, 3, 5, and 7 are labeled NIC (Not Internally Connected), meaning they have no internal bond wires and may be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical reinforcement. Pin 8 is DNC (Do Not Connect) - an internal test node that must remain unconnected to prevent parametric shifts or reliability risks.
Is ADR4550CRZ-R7 qualified for automotive applications?
No, ADR4550CRZ-R7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified. While it operates across −40°C to +125°C and shares design heritage with automotive-grade variants (e.g., ADR4525W), the ADR4550CRZ-R7 part number itself is designated for industrial and medical use. For automotive battery monitoring, Analog Devices offers ADR4525W in SOIC-8 with full AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification.
