Product details
Overview
LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (acquired Linear Technology) is a precision 5V series/shunt voltage reference IC featuring ultra-low 5ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, 0.05% max initial accuracy, and <3µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) output noise. It sources/sinks ±10mA, operates from 6V to 40V input, and delivers stable 5V output for high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing in industrial instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF datasheet, LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF pinout, LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF application, or LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include long-term stability (20ppm/1000hrs), thermal hysteresis (10ppm), ripple rejection (>100dB), and compatibility with precision scale and inertial navigation signal chains.
Technical Context
The LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF uses a subsurface buried zener diode structure-eliminating surface-breakdown noise and drift-to achieve superior stability over bandgap references. Its architecture supports both series-mode (3-terminal) and shunt-mode (2-terminal) operation without external components.
Thermal regulation effects are minimized via low-power design (1.2mA typical supply current) and internal stress compensation, enabling stable performance across –40°C to 85°C without on-chip heaters. The trim pin (Pin 5) allows fine adjustment of output voltage while maintaining TC integrity when driven from ≤3kΩ source impedance.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum load current LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF can source or sink?
LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF can source or sink up to ±10mA continuously while maintaining specified accuracy and temperature coefficient. At 10mA sourcing, load regulation is 10–35ppm/mA; sinking capability is verified down to –10mA with 60–150ppm/mA regulation. Exceeding ±10mA risks exceeding thermal limits and degrading long-term stability.
Can LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF operate in shunt mode like a two-terminal zener?
Yes, LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF supports true two-terminal shunt operation: connect VIN to VOUT and apply current through GND. In this configuration, it regulates at 5V with same precision specs as series mode. Minimum shunt current is 1.1mA (open VIN), and output-to-ground voltage is rated to 10V - enabling use in legacy zener-replacement circuits.
What is the purpose of the TRIM pin (Pin 5) on LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF?
The TRIM pin (Pin 5) on LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF allows fine adjustment of output voltage with 13:1 attenuation to VOUT, enabling ±70mV trim range. Its 100kΩ input impedance requires driving from ≤3kΩ source to avoid TC degradation. For LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF, trimming is typically used to null system-level offsets in precision DAC/ADC calibrations.
How does LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF achieve ultra-low noise below 10Hz?
LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF achieves <3µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) noise via its subsurface buried zener diode structure - eliminating surface-state noise mechanisms inherent in bandgap or surface-zener references. This design also minimizes thermoelectric noise by reducing thermal gradients across leads, provided air turbulence is shielded per datasheet layout guidelines.
Is LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF compatible with AD586 or AD587 footprints?
Yes, LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF is explicitly pin-compatible with AD586 and AD587 in the SO-8 package. Pin assignments (VIN, GND, VOUT, TRIM) match identically, allowing drop-in replacement in existing designs. However, note that LT1236BIS8-5#TRPBF offers lower TC (5ppm/°C vs. AD586's 10ppm/°C) and superior long-term stability (20ppm/1000hrs vs. AD586's 50ppm).
