Product details
Overview
LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a precision 4.096V low-dropout series voltage reference with ±0.06% initial accuracy, 7ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 35µA typical supply current. It delivers up to 50mA output current with <300mV dropout at full load and features shutdown control, thermal limiting, and guaranteed operation from –40°C to +85°C - ideal for high-resolution data acquisition in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF datasheet, LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF pinout, LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF application, or LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.096V output (optimized for 12-bit ADCs), SO-8 package compatibility, industrial temperature range, and micropower performance under dynamic load conditions.
Technical Context
The LT1461BIS8-4#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 <200µs wake-up time and draws ≤35µA in shutdown mode.
Designed as a series reference, it maintains regulation with VIN ≥ VOUT + 0.3V and supports output capacitance from 1µF to ≥2µF. Load regulation is specified at 12ppm/mA (typical), and line regulation is ≤8ppm/V across 0.5V to 20V input range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.096V ±0.06% (±2.46mV) - matches standard 12-bit ADC full-scale reference point |
| Tempco | 7ppm/°C max - contributes ≤0.59mV error over –40°C to +85°C ambient |
| Supply Current | 35µA typ / 50µA max - enables >1-year battery life in 10µA sleep-cycle systems |
| Dropout Voltage | ≤300mV at 50mA - allows operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0V min) with margin |
| Output Drive | 50mA min sourcing - supports direct driving of op-amp bias networks or DAC references |
| Shutdown Current | ≤35µA - reduces system standby power without external FET switching |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF43FH4096IDR | 4.096V, ±0.05% initial accuracy, 3ppm/°C max, 100µA supply current, SO-8 | Higher accuracy and lower drift but 3× higher supply current; no shutdown function | Select when ultra-low drift dominates over power budget and shutdown is unnecessary |
| ADR444BRZ | 4.096V, ±0.04% initial accuracy, 3ppm/°C max, 750µA supply current, SO-8 | Superior long-term stability and noise performance, but 20× higher quiescent current and no shutdown | Select for metrology-grade applications where power is secondary to absolute precision and stability |
Compared with REF43FH4096IDR and ADR444BRZ, the LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF trades minor accuracy and drift degradation for micropower operation and integrated shutdown - making it optimal for battery-constrained, industrial-grade systems requiring moderate precision and active power management.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF is 20V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. For reliable operation, VIN should be maintained between (VOUT + 0.3V) = 4.396V and 20V. Exceeding 20V risks permanent damage, and operation below 4.396V will cause dropout and loss of regulation. The LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF maintains full specification compliance across this range when loaded up to 50mA.
Does LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF require external capacitors?
Yes, LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF requires both input and output capacitors for stability. A minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor is required on VOUT; 2µF is recommended for loads ≥1mA. An input bypass capacitor (≥1µF) is also required on VIN - shared supply bypass caps within 2 inches may suffice if adequately sized. Omitting either capacitor risks oscillation or degraded transient response, as confirmed in the Applications Information section of the LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF datasheet.
How does the shutdown feature work on LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF?
The shutdown pin (Pin 3) of LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF is active-low: applying <0.5V places the device in shutdown mode, reducing supply current to ≤35µA and disabling the output. Applying >2.4V enables normal operation. The LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF wakes up in approximately 200µs when SHDN transitions high. This feature allows system-level power cycling without external switches, and is validated across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF?
LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF exhibits 75ppm maximum thermal hysteresis over the –40°C to +85°C temperature range, as documented in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value represents the worst-case output voltage shift observed after cycling between temperature extremes and returning to 25°C - a critical parameter for applications requiring repeatable calibration after field thermal exposure. The LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF hysteresis is measured on soldered PC board assemblies, reflecting real-world mechanical stress effects.
Can LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF drive a 50mA load continuously?
Yes, LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF is rated for continuous 50mA sourcing current, as confirmed in the Features list and Electrical Characteristics table. However, power dissipation must be managed: at 50mA and 300mV dropout, it dissipates 15mW - well within SO-8 thermal limits. At higher VIN–VOUT differentials, junction temperature must be monitored; thermal shutdown activates near 150°C. The LT1461BIS8-4#TRPBF maintains regulation and specified accuracy under these conditions when PCB layout follows recommended thermal guidelines.
