Product details
Overview
LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 from Analog Devices is a precision bandgap voltage reference delivering 2.5V output with ±0.025% initial accuracy, 2ppm/°C max temperature drift, and ultra-low 0.25ppmP-P (625nVP-P) 0.1Hz–10Hz noise - engineered for high-resolution data acquisition, instrumentation, and automotive-grade sensor signal conditioning where long-term stability and thermal hysteresis control are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 datasheet, LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 pinout, LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 application, or LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 equivalent, key selection considerations include hermetic LS8 package stability (30ppm thermal hysteresis over –40°C to 85°C), dual-force/sense output architecture, ±5mA sourcing/sinking capability, and 500mV dropout operation - all validated across –40°C to 125°C.
Technical Context
The LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 implements curvature-compensated bandgap topology with separate force (VOUT_F) and sense (VOUT_S) outputs to eliminate load regulation error via Kelvin sensing. Its internal 2mA sense current enables precise remote load regulation independent of load current magnitude.
It features active shutdown mode (<20µA quiescent), operates from VIN = VOUT + 0.5V (min) to 13.2V, and achieves 100% production testing at –40°C, 25°C, and 125°C - confirming full-range performance compliance for industrial and automotive applications requiring traceable calibration-grade stability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.500V ±0.025% (±625µV absolute error at 25°C) |
| Tempco (Drift) | ≤2ppm/°C max (≤250ppm total over –40°C to 125°C) |
| Low-Freq Noise | 0.25ppmP-P (625nVP-P) 0.1Hz–10Hz - enables 24-bit+ ADC systems without noise floor degradation |
| Load Regulation | ≤15ppm/mA (sourcing), ≤45ppm/mA (sinking) - minimized via VOUT_S feedback path |
| Long-Term Drift | 20ppm/√kHr (LS8 package) - 3× better than MSOP variant, critical for uncalibrated field deployments |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 30ppm (–40°C to 85°C) - hermetic ceramic package eliminates humidity-induced stress shifts |
| Shutdown Current | <20µA - enables battery-powered portable instrumentation with multi-year standby life |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin leadless ceramic chip carrier (LS8), 5mm × 5mm, hermetic, surface-mount. Designed for ultra-stable mechanical and environmental performance in harsh environments.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SHDN | Active-low shutdown control input | Internal pull-up ensures default enable; external tie-high recommended to prevent noise-induced shutdown |
| 2 - VIN | Power supply input | Operates from VOUT + 0.5V (min) to 13.2V; requires ≥0.1µF local bypass to GND |
| 3, 4, 5, 8 - GND | Device ground terminals | Four dedicated GND pins reduce ground impedance and improve PSRR; all must connect to low-noise system ground plane |
| 6 - VOUT_S | Sense output (Kelvin feedback) | Sinks 2mA; connects directly at load to cancel trace resistance error (RTRACE × 2mA) |
| 7 - VOUT_F | Force output (regulated source) | Sources/sinks ±5mA; requires 2.7µF–100µF output capacitor for stability and transient response |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR4525BRTZ-REEL7 | 2.5V, ±0.02% initial accuracy, 3ppm/°C drift, SOIC-8 package (non-hermetic), 1.2ppmP-P noise | Higher drift and plastic package limit use in high-humidity or wide-cycling environments | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs hermetic stability requirements and ambient conditions are controlled |
| LTC6655BHMS8-2.5#PBF | Same core specs but in 8-lead MSOP plastic package; 60ppm thermal hysteresis (–40°C to 85°C), 60ppm/√kHr long-term drift | Lower stability makes it unsuitable for uncalibrated field instruments or sealed enclosures with thermal cycling | Select only for lab-grade equipment or short-lifecycle consumer devices where LS8 cost premium is unjustified |
Compared with ADR4525BRTZ-REEL7 and LTC6655BHMS8-2.5#PBF, the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 delivers superior long-term reliability in thermally aggressive or humid environments due to its hermetic LS8 construction - reducing calibration maintenance intervals by 3–5× in deployed instrumentation.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5?
The LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 13.2V relative to GND. Operation above this level risks permanent damage. For reliable long-term performance, VIN should be maintained between VOUT + 0.5V (i.e., 3.0V minimum) and 13.2V, with proper 0.1µF local bypassing to GND as specified in the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 datasheet.
Does the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 require external capacitors, and if so, what values?
Yes - the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 requires a minimum 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from VIN to GND, and an output capacitor between 2.7µF and 100µF from VOUT_F to GND. The LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 datasheet specifies that ESR must be ≤0.1Ω at 100kHz to ensure stability; X7R ceramics are acceptable for most uses, but film capacitors are recommended for ultra-low-noise applications to avoid piezoelectric artifacts.
How does the dual-output (VOUT_F / VOUT_S) architecture of the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 improve accuracy?
The LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 uses separate force (VOUT_F) and sense (VOUT_S) outputs to implement true Kelvin sensing: VOUT_S sinks a fixed 2mA current and connects directly at the load, allowing the internal regulator to compensate for voltage drop across PCB traces. This eliminates load regulation error - ensuring the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 maintains ≤15ppm/mA sourcing accuracy regardless of trace resistance or load current magnitude.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5, and why is it important?
The LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 exhibits 30ppm thermal hysteresis over the –40°C to 85°C cycle, measured as output voltage deviation after returning to 25°C following extreme temperature exposure. This low hysteresis - enabled by the hermetic LS8 ceramic package - ensures repeatable measurements in instruments subjected to daily ambient swings, eliminating calibration drift caused by mechanical stress relaxation in plastic-packaged alternatives.
Can the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 be used in battery-powered applications with strict power budgets?
Yes - the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 draws only 5mA typical supply current in normal operation and less than 20µA in shutdown mode when SHDN is tied to GND. Its 500mV dropout allows direct operation from 3.0V lithium batteries, and the internal pull-up on SHDN simplifies control logic. For multi-year battery life, the LTC6655BHLS8-2.5 supports duty-cycled wake-up architectures common in portable instrumentation and wireless sensors.
