Product details
Overview
ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a precision 1.200 V shunt voltage reference in a 3 mm × 3 mm SOT-23 package, delivering ±0.3% initial accuracy, 60 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 4 µVp-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) output noise, and stable operation from 100 µA to 10 mA supply current. It serves as a low-noise, space-constrained reference for high-resolution data converters in portable medical instruments and battery-powered GPS devices.
For engineers reviewing the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 datasheet, ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 pinout, ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 application, or ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed operating conditions across −40°C to +85°C, and real-world implementation guidance for precision analog signal chains.
Technical Context
The ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 operates as a two-terminal shunt reference requiring an external bias resistor (RBIAS) to set total current through the device and load. Its TRIM/NC pin supports ±0.5% output voltage adjustment without degrading temperature coefficient.
It achieves ultralow noise via internal bandgap design and requires no external capacitor for stability-yet remains compatible with any capacitive load. Turn-on settling time is 10 µs to within 0.1% of final output, and dynamic output impedance is ≤0.3 Ω at 1 mA ±100 µA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.200 V ±3.5 mV (±0.3%) at 25°C - sets absolute scaling for ADC/DAC full-scale range |
| Temp. Coefficient | 60 ppm/°C max over −40°C to +85°C - ensures ≤0.72 mV drift across industrial temperature range |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 4 µVp-p - enables <16-bit effective resolution in precision data acquisition systems |
| Operating Current | 100 µA to 10 mA - supports ultra-low-power sensor nodes and high-current reference buffers |
| Dynamic Impedance | ≤0.3 Ω - minimizes load-induced output variation during fast transient current demands |
| Turn-On Settling | 10 µs to 0.1% - allows rapid power cycling in duty-cycled portable instrumentation |
Pinout & Package
Package: 3-lead SOT-23 (RT-3), JEDEC TO-236-AB compliant, 3.04 mm × 2.90 mm × 1.12 mm body size.

|---|---|---|---|
| REF1912ASTT1G | 1.25 V nominal output, ±0.2% initial accuracy, 50 ppm/°C tempco, 15 µVp-p noise, SOT-23-3 | Higher output voltage limits use in 1.2 V–biased circuits; higher noise impacts 16-bit+ resolution | Select when 1.25 V reference is acceptable and tighter initial accuracy outweighs noise penalty |
| MAX6126AASA12+ | 1.20 V output, ±0.06% initial accuracy, 3 ppm/°C tempco, 10 µVp-p noise, 8-pin SOIC | Larger SOIC-8 package increases board area; superior tempco but higher cost and noise than ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 | Choose for metrology-grade systems where long-term stability justifies size and cost premium |

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current rating for the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7?
The ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 has an absolute maximum reverse current rating of 25 mA, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Exceeding this value risks permanent damage. In normal operation, the device draws 100 µA to 10 mA through its V− terminal, with current set by the external bias resistor. The ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 must never be subjected to forward conduction beyond 20 mA.
Can the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 be used to generate a negative reference voltage?
Yes, the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 can configure a precise −1.2 V reference by connecting its V+ pin to system ground and its V− pin to a negative supply rail (e.g., −VDD) through a bias resistor. This exploits its shunt architecture: the cathode (V−) sits 1.2 V above the anode (V+). When V+ is grounded, V− becomes −1.2 V. The ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 maintains full spec compliance in this configuration.
Does the TRIM/NC pin on the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 require external circuitry to function?
The TRIM/NC pin on the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 is optional: it may be left unconnected (NC) with no impact on baseline operation. When used for trimming, it accepts a mechanical or digital potentiometer to adjust output voltage ±0.5% without affecting temperature coefficient. No external amplifier, capacitor, or bias network is required - only a three-terminal potentiometer between V+, V−, and TRIM/NC.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7?
The ADR512ARTZ-REEL7 exhibits 50 ppm thermal hysteresis, defined as the output voltage change after cycling from +25°C → −40°C → +85°C → +25°C. This value reflects real-world repeatability in temperature-varying environments and is independent of the 60 ppm/°C temperature coefficient. It is measured per unit and represents typical behavior across production lots.
Is an external capacitor required for stability with the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7?
No external capacitor is required for stability with the ADR512ARTZ-REEL7. Its internal design ensures unconditional stability across all capacitive loads, including zero capacitance. An optional output capacitor may be added solely for additional noise filtering - it does not affect loop stability. This eliminates layout constraints and reduces bill-of-materials count compared to older shunt references.
