Product details
Overview
LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a precision 3.0V low-dropout series voltage reference IC with ±0.06% initial accuracy, 7ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 35µA typical supply current. It delivers up to 50mA output drive while maintaining <300mV dropout at full load, enabling use in battery-powered instrumentation and high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF datasheet, LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF pinout, LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF application, or LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include industrial-temperature operation (–40°C to +85°C), shutdown control capability, thermal hysteresis performance (75ppm over –40°C to +85°C), and SO-8 package compatibility with standard PCB layout practices for precision analog systems.
Technical Context
The LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF implements curvature-compensated bandgap architecture with trimmed thin-film resistors for stable 3.0V output. Its internal shutdown circuitry enables logic-level control (Pin 3) with <0.8V low threshold and <4µA leakage, allowing system-level power sequencing.
Designed for low-noise, low-drift applications, it achieves 9.6ppmRMS noise (10Hz–1kHz) and exhibits <12ppm/mA load regulation under 50mA sourcing. Thermal shutdown activates at ~150°C junction temperature, protecting against sustained overload conditions without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.0V ±0.06% (±1.8mV) - ensures direct compatibility with 3.0V ADC reference inputs without calibration overhead |
| Tempco | 7ppm/°C max - limits drift to ≤525ppm over –40°C to +85°C operating range, supporting 14-bit system accuracy |
| Supply Current | 35µA typ / 50µA max - enables multi-year battery life in portable data loggers and sensor nodes |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.3V max at 50mA - allows operation from 3.3V rails with ≥300mV headroom, maximizing usable battery voltage |
| Output Drive | 50mA min sourcing - supports direct driving of op-amp bias networks and precision regulator error amplifiers |
| Shutdown Current | 35µA max - maintains ultra-low standby power while preserving fast wake-up (<200µs turn-on time) |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 75ppm over –40°C to +85°C - quantifies post-temperature-cycle output shift affecting repeatability in field-deployed instruments |
Pinout & Package
LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF uses an 8-lead plastic SO (SO-8) package with θJA = 190°C/W and lead-free finish. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner when viewing the top side with marking dot oriented left.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Reference ground return path; must connect to clean analog ground plane to minimize noise coupling |
| 2 | VIN | Input supply terminal; requires ≥1µF bypass capacitor within 2 inches to suppress supply ripple |
| 3 | SHDN | Active-low shutdown control; drives <4µA at 0.8V threshold, enabling microcontroller GPIO interfacing |
| 4 | DNC | No-connect terminal; must remain unconnected per datasheet to avoid parametric degradation |
| 5 | DNC | No-connect terminal; floating connection prevents unintended parasitic paths in high-impedance nodes |
| 6 | VOUT | Regulated 3.0V output; requires ≥2µF ceramic capacitor for stability under >1mA loads |
| 7 | DNC | No-connect terminal; isolation from adjacent pins reduces crosstalk in mixed-signal layouts |
| 8 | DNC | No-connect terminal; maintains symmetry and thermal balance across package body |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF3030AIDBZR | 3.0V, ±0.2% initial accuracy, 50ppm/°C tempco, SOT-23-3 package, 50µA supply current | Limited to 25mA output drive; no shutdown pin; smaller footprint but higher drift | Select for space-constrained designs where 12-bit accuracy suffices and shutdown is unnecessary |

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF?
The LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF guarantees minimum 50mA sourcing capability under specified conditions (VIN ≥ VOUT + 2.5V). It can deliver up to 100mA short-circuit current, though thermal shutdown activates if junction temperature exceeds ~150°C. For continuous 50mA operation, ensure adequate PCB copper area or heatsinking given its 190°C/W thermal resistance.
Does the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF require external capacitors for stability?
Yes, the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF requires both input and output capacitors. A minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor on VIN (within 2 inches) serves as supply bypass, while ≥2µF on VOUT is mandatory for stability under loads >1mA. Omitting the output capacitor causes oscillation and output inaccuracy, as confirmed in the Applications Information section.
How does the shutdown feature operate on the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF?
The LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF enters shutdown when Pin 3 (SHDN) is pulled below 0.5V, reducing supply current to ≤35µA. It resumes normal operation within 200µs when SHDN rises above 2.4V. The pin draws <4µA at 0.8V, enabling direct interface with 3.3V or 5V logic outputs without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF?
The LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF exhibits 75ppm thermal hysteresis over the –40°C to +85°C temperature range, measured as output voltage shift after cycling between extremes and returning to 25°C. This value reflects worst-case behavior of soldered units on PCBs and impacts repeatability in field-deployed instruments subjected to ambient temperature swings.
Can the LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF be used in automotive applications?
The LT1461BIS8-3#TRPBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C operation and meets industrial reliability standards, but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For automotive applications, Analog Devices offers the LT1461DHS8-3#TRPBF variant (–40°C to +125°C, AEC-Q100 Grade 1), which shares identical electrical specifications but undergoes additional automotive-grade qualification testing.
