Product details
Overview
LT6650CS5#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower, low-voltage 400mV series voltage reference with integrated rail-to-rail buffer amplifier in a 5-lead SOT-23 package. It operates from 1.4V to 18V supply, draws only 5.6µA typical quiescent current, delivers ±200µA output drive, and maintains ±0.75% max accuracy over 0°C to 70°C - ideal for battery-powered instrumentation and industrial sensor signal chains.
For engineers reviewing the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF datasheet, LT6650CS5#TRMPBF pinout, LT6650CS5#TRMPBF application, or LT6650CS5#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400mV nominal output, post-package trimming for accuracy, ability to source/sink load current, compatibility with ≥1µF output capacitance, and configurable external resistor scaling up to near-supply voltage.
Technical Context
The LT6650CS5#TRMPBF integrates a precision bandgap reference core with a unity-gain rail-to-rail output buffer, enabling both series and shunt reference configurations. Its feedback (FB) pin allows precise external resistor-based gain adjustment while maintaining 1.2nA typical input bias current.
It employs bipolar process technology with internal ESD protection diodes on IN, OUT, and FB pins relative to GND, supports indefinite short-circuit operation, and achieves 30ppm/°C max temperature coefficient across its specified 0°C to 70°C operating range.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 400mV ±0.75% over 0°C to 70°C - enables stable low-voltage ADC/DAC biasing and sensor excitation |
| Supply Current | 5.6µA typical at 5V - extends battery life in portable systems beyond 10 years at µA-level loads |
| Load Drive | ±200µA sourcing/sinking - supports direct interface to op-amp inputs, SAR ADC references, and analog switches |
| Line Regulation | 1–6mV over 1.4V–18V input - ensures stable output despite battery discharge or unregulated supply ripple |
| Temp Coefficient | 30ppm/°C max - contributes ≤210ppm error across full 0°C–70°C range, critical for precision measurement |
| Output Noise | 20µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz), 23µVRMS (10Hz–1kHz) - minimizes noise contribution in high-resolution data acquisition |
| Stability Cap | ≥1µF output capacitor required - guarantees phase margin and transient immunity without external compensation |
Pinout & Package
LT6650CS5#TRMPBF is housed in a 5-lead TSOT-23 (ThinSOT™) package, 1mm profile, JEDEC MO-193 compliant, with pin 1 marked by dimple. Pin 3 (DNC) is internally trimmed and must remain unconnected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| 2 (GND) | Ground Reference | Common return for reference core, buffer, and ESD protection diodes; requires low-impedance connection |
| 3 (DNC) | No Connect | Internally used for post-package trimming; floating connection prevents calibration drift or instability |
| 4 (IN) | Positive Supply | Accepts 1.4V–18V; includes ESD diode to GND; bypass with ≥0.1µF recommended |
| 5 (OUT) | Buffered Reference Output | Sources/sinks ±200µA; stable with ≥1µF capacitive load; rail-to-rail swing enables wide output range |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1460ACS8-4.096#TRPBF | 4.096V fixed output, 0.05% initial accuracy, 10ppm/°C TC, 35µA supply current | Higher voltage, tighter TC, but 6× higher quiescent current limits battery life | Select when absolute 4.096V is required and power budget allows >30µA |
| REF3040AIDBZR | 4.096V fixed output, ±0.2% initial accuracy, 50ppm/°C TC, 45µA supply current, 3-pin SOT-23 | Lower accuracy and higher TC than LT6650CS5#TRMPBF; no FB pin or adjustability | Select for cost-sensitive, non-adjustable 4.096V applications where 45µA supply is acceptable |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF?
The LT6650CS5#TRMPBF is specified for operation from 0°C to 70°C. This commercial-grade temperature range is clearly defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Electrical Characteristics section of the official datasheet. The 'CS5' suffix explicitly denotes this grade - distinct from the 'IS5' (–40°C to 85°C) and 'HS5' (–40°C to 125°C) variants. Exceeding 70°C may cause parametric shift beyond guaranteed limits.
Can the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF be used as a shunt reference, and how is it configured?
Yes, the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF can operate as an adjustable 2-terminal shunt reference. To configure it, connect the IN pin to the unregulated supply (VS), tie FB to GND, and connect OUT to the reference output node through an external bias resistor (RB). The device then regulates the voltage across RB, enabling both positive and negative reference topologies - as shown in Figures 9 and 10 of the LT6650 datasheet. This mode leverages its ability to sink and source current without requiring a dedicated ground-referenced supply.
What output capacitor value is required for stable operation of the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF?
The LT6650CS5#TRMPBF requires a minimum 1µF output capacitor connected between OUT and GND for guaranteed stability across all operating conditions. This is explicitly stated in the datasheet's "Stability is ensured with any output capacitor of 1µF or higher" note and reinforced in the Applications Information section. Using less than 1µF risks oscillation or poor transient response; larger values (e.g., 10µF) improve load-step immunity but are not mandatory for basic stability.
Does the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF have built-in ESD protection, and what are the limits?
Yes, the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF includes integrated ESD protection diodes from IN, OUT, and FB pins to GND. Per Absolute Maximum Ratings, the FB pin is protected to –0.3V below GND, and forward current into these diodes must be limited to <10mA to prevent damage. The device is rated as ESD-sensitive (Class 1C per JEDEC JS-001), so standard ESD handling precautions - including grounded workstations and ionized air - are required during assembly and testing of the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF.
How is the output voltage adjusted on the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF, and what resistor tolerance is recommended?
The LT6650CS5#TRMPBF output voltage is adjusted using two external resistors: RF from OUT to FB, and RG from FB to GND. The relationship is VOUT = 0.4V × (1 + RF/RG). Because the VOUT error distribution increases at twice the resistor tolerance, the datasheet recommends high-accuracy resistors or matched networks - especially for applications demanding <0.1% total error. For example, 0.1% tolerance resistors yield ≤0.2% resistor-induced error in the final reference voltage of the LT6650CS5#TRMPBF.
