Product details
Overview
LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a micropower precision low-dropout series voltage reference delivering 4.096V output with ±0.06% initial accuracy, 7ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 35µA typical supply current. It provides 50mA output drive capability and supports shutdown control, making it suitable for high-accuracy data acquisition systems requiring stable excitation in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF datasheet, LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF pinout, LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF application, or LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 0°C to 70°C operation, SO-8 package compatibility, thermal hysteresis ≤75ppm over –40°C to 85°C, and load regulation of 30ppm/mA up to 50mA.
Technical Context
The LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF uses curvature-compensated bandgap architecture with trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve tight initial accuracy and low drift. Its internal shutdown circuit enables full-load current switching with <35µA quiescent current in disabled state.
It features thermal shutdown at 150°C junction temperature and operates with dropout voltage as low as 130mV at 1mA load. Line regulation is specified at 8ppm/V and output noise is 8ppmP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz), supporting high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing without added filtering.

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF?
The LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF guarantees minimum output current capability of 50mA under specified conditions (VIN = VOUT + 2.5V). It can deliver higher currents with increased input headroom, though thermal limits apply. The device includes thermal shutdown protection that activates near 150°C junction temperature to prevent damage during sustained overload.
Does the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF require external capacitors, and if so, what values?
Yes, the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF requires both input and output bypass capacitors. A minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor is recommended on VIN, and a minimum 2µF ceramic capacitor is required on VOUT for stability under full 50mA load. These values are validated in the datasheet's Typical Application circuits and transient response figures.
What is the operating temperature range for the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF?
The LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF is specified for operation from 0°C to 70°C, as indicated by the "C" grade suffix in its part number. It remains functional across –40°C to 125°C per Absolute Maximum Ratings, but parametric performance (e.g., accuracy, drift) is only guaranteed within the 0°C to 70°C range.
How does the shutdown feature of the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF operate?
The LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF enters shutdown when Pin 3 (SHDN) is pulled to ≤0.5V, reducing supply current to ≤35µA. It resumes normal operation within 200µs after SHDN rises to ≥2.4V. During shutdown, VOUT is disabled and high-impedance; the part retains ability to sink small currents via internal circuitry.
Is the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the LT1461BCS8-4#TRPBF carries the "#TRPBF" suffix, indicating RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish and packaging qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles (JEDEC J-STD-020). Its SO-8 package withstands peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds, matching IPC/JEDEC specifications for lead-free assembly.
