Product details
Overview
LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower, low-dropout, precision series voltage reference in TSOT-23-6 package, delivering 5.000 V ±0.1% initial accuracy, 25 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 60 µA max supply current. It operates from –40°C to 85°C and supports both sourcing and sinking up to 5 mA, making it ideal for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in battery-powered data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF datasheet, LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF pinout, LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF application, or LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed industrial-temperature operation, sub-100 µA quiescent current, low thermal hysteresis (40 ppm), dropout voltage under 250 mV at 5 mA sink, and compatibility with negative-reference configurations.
Technical Context
The LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF uses curvature-compensated bandgap architecture with post-package trimming of thin-film resistors to achieve tight initial accuracy and low drift. Its internal design enables stable operation with output capacitance as low as 0.47 µF and supports bidirectional current flow-sourcing for positive references and sinking for negative reference topologies.
It features guaranteed functional operation from –40°C to 125°C, with specified performance over –40°C to 85°C. The device maintains <220 ppm/V line regulation and <300 ppm/mA load regulation across its full input range (up to 18 V), enabling robust use in varying supply conditions without external compensation.

| 5 | GND | Second ground terminal; improves PSRR and thermal stability when both grounded |
| 6 | DNC | No-connect terminal; left floating per datasheet (not internally tied) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional current capability | Sources up to 5 mA and sinks up to 3 mA-enables true negative-reference operation (e.g., –5 V) without external components |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR3450ARJZ-R7 | 5.0 V output, ±0.1% initial accuracy, 30 ppm/°C max drift, 120 µA max IQ, SOT-23-5 | Single-supply only (no sinking), higher quiescent current, no dual-GND pins | Choose if board space is constrained and negative reference not required; verify PSRR and noise specs for signal chain sensitivity. |
| REF5050AIDR | 5.0 V output, ±0.05% initial accuracy, 3 ppm/°C max drift, 950 µA IQ, SOIC-8 | Higher accuracy and lower drift but 15× higher supply current and larger package | Choose for metrology-grade systems where drift dominates error budget and power is secondary; not suitable for battery operation. |
Compared with ADR3450ARJZ-R7, LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF offers sinking capability and lower IQ for bipolar designs; compared with REF5050AIDR, it trades ultimate precision for 15× lower power and TSOT-23 footprint-making it optimal for portable, industrial, and dual-polarity applications where µA-level supply current is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF?
The LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF is fully specified over –40°C to +85°C (industrial grade). It remains functional up to +125°C, though parameters like output voltage shift are characterized only to 85°C per datasheet limits. This makes LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF suitable for harsh-environment deployments including factory automation and outdoor instrumentation.
Can LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF be used as a negative voltage reference?
Yes-LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF can sink up to 3 mA, enabling direct implementation of a –5.000 V reference using a simple external resistor configuration (per Figure 7 in the datasheet). Unlike most positive-only references, LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF maintains the same ±0.1% accuracy and 25 ppm/°C drift in negative mode, eliminating need for separate negative-reference ICs.
What is the minimum input voltage required for LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF to regulate at 5 V?
At zero load, LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF requires only 5.05 V input (50 mV dropout). Under 5 mA sourcing, dropout rises to 120 mV (VIN ≥ 5.12 V); under 3 mA sinking, it reaches 250 mV (VIN ≥ 5.25 V). These low dropout values allow LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF to operate efficiently from single Li-ion cells (3.0–4.2 V) when configured as a negative reference, or from low-headroom supplies in multi-rail systems.
How does LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF achieve low thermal hysteresis?
LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF achieves 40 ppm typical hysteresis (–40°C to 85°C) through mechanical stress mitigation: curvature-compensated bandgap core design, symmetric die layout, and post-package laser trimming of thin-film resistors. This minimizes differential expansion effects between silicon and package-critical for applications requiring repeatable calibration after thermal cycling, such as portable test equipment and field-deployed sensors.
Is an output capacitor required for LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF stability?
Yes-a minimum 1 µF ceramic capacitor is required at the VOUT pin for stability and optimal noise performance. The datasheet confirms stable operation with 0.47 µF to 4.7 µF; smaller values increase output impedance above 100 Hz and degrade PSRR. For LT1790BIS6-5#TRMPBF, omitting the capacitor risks oscillation and increased noise, especially under dynamic load conditions common in data acquisition systems.
