Product details
Overview
LT1019ACH-4.5 from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision bandgap voltage reference IC operating in series or shunt mode with 4.5V nominal output, ±0.05% initial tolerance, 5ppm/°C temperature coefficient over 0°C to 70°C, and ultralow 0.5ppm/V line regulation - used in high-accuracy data acquisition systems requiring stable excitation for bridge sensors and calibration-grade DACs.
For engineers reviewing the LT1019ACH-4.5 datasheet, LT1019ACH-4.5 pinout, LT1019ACH-4.5 application, or LT1019ACH-4.5 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed industrial-grade TC performance, dual-mode operation without external components, trim capability, low output impedance (0.02Ω), and compatibility with legacy references including AD580 and REF-02.
Technical Context
The LT1019ACH-4.5 implements wafer-level trimmed thin-film curvature correction to achieve <5ppm/°C drift across 0°C–70°C and supports both sourcing and sinking up to 10mA. Its architecture enables operation with input/output differential as low as 0.9V in series mode and permits negative-output shunt configurations using external biasing.
It features a dedicated TEMP pin delivering PTAT voltage (~2.1mV/°C) with <0.05%/µA loading sensitivity, and a TRIM pin enabling ±3.5% to ±6% output adjustment depending on voltage variant - confirmed for LT1019-4.5 in H-package configuration.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1236CS8-4.5 | Zener-based, 5ppm/°C TC, SO-8 package, higher 1.2mA quiescent current | Better long-term stability but requires higher headroom (≥7V input); not shunt-capable | Choose for ultra-low drift over time in fixed-supply systems where board space favors SO-8 |
| LT1461ACS8-4.5 | Bandgap, 3ppm/°C TC, micropower (50µA IQ), SO-8, max 5mA output | Limited sink/source capability; not rated for shunt mode or >5mA loads | Choose for battery-powered applications needing ultra-low IQ and moderate accuracy, not high-current or dual-mode use |
Compared with LT1236CS8-4.5 and LT1461ACS8-4.5, the LT1019ACH-4.5 uniquely supports both series and shunt operation up to 10mA while maintaining 5ppm/°C TC in a hermetic TO-5 package - making it irreplaceable in ruggedized, high-reliability bridge excitation and calibration hardware.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LT1019ACH-4.5?
The LT1019ACH-4.5 is specified for the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. Its 5ppm/°C temperature coefficient and ±0.05% initial tolerance are guaranteed across this range using the box method. The 'ACH' suffix denotes the H-package (TO-5 metal can) with commercial-grade screening - distinct from industrial ('CH') or military ('MH') variants.
Can the LT1019ACH-4.5 operate in shunt mode with negative output voltage?
Yes, the LT1019ACH-4.5 supports shunt-mode operation with negative output voltage when configured with appropriate external biasing - e.g., connecting OUTPUT to system ground and INPUT to a negative rail. This is explicitly supported per the datasheet and enables use as a negative 4.5V reference, unlike most bandgap devices limited to positive outputs.
What is the minimum input-to-output voltage differential required for LT1019ACH-4.5 in series mode?
The LT1019ACH-4.5 requires a minimum input-to-output voltage differential of 0.9V when load current is ≤1mA, and 1.3V at 10mA. This low headroom enables operation from 5.5V supplies while delivering stable 4.5V - critical for low-voltage precision systems where dropout margin is constrained.
Does the LT1019ACH-4.5 require output capacitance for stability?
No, the LT1019ACH-4.5 is unconditionally stable with all load capacitances for the 4.5V version - unlike the 2.5V variant which can oscillate with 400pF–2µF capacitors under 1–6mA sink conditions. Stability is maintained regardless of ESR or capacitor type, simplifying design in noise-sensitive applications.
How is output voltage trimmed on the LT1019ACH-4.5?
Output voltage trimming on the LT1019ACH-4.5 is performed by connecting a potentiometer between OUTPUT and GND, with its wiper tied to the TRIM pin. The device supports ±3.5% nominal trim range for the 4.5V version - enabling fine calibration to exact system requirements without external op-amps or complex feedback networks.
