Product details
Overview
The MAX6025AEUR+T from Analog Devices is a precision 2.500V series-mode voltage reference in SOT23-3 package, featuring 0.2% initial accuracy, <15ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and 100mV dropout at 500μA load current. It delivers ultra-low 35μA quiescent current and supports ±500μA sourcing/sinking for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6025AEUR+T datasheet, MAX6025AEUR+T pinout, MAX6025AEUR+T application, or MAX6025AEUR+T equivalent, key selection criteria include output stability under varying load (0.14μV/μA load regulation), supply-voltage independence (0.8μA/V variation), and capacitive-load tolerance up to 2.2nF without external compensation.
Technical Context
This device uses a proprietary curvature-correction circuit and laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve <20ppm/°C TC over –40°C to +85°C and 0.2% initial accuracy. Its series-mode architecture eliminates external bias resistors and enables supply-current independence from VIN.
Internally compensated for stability with 0–2.2nF load capacitance, it avoids board-area penalties of external compensation capacitors. Dropout voltage remains ≤200mV across full temperature range at 500μA load, supporting operation in low-voltage battery systems down to VOUT + 0.2V input.

FAQ
What is the maximum load current the MAX6025AEUR+T can source or sink?
The MAX6025AEUR+T can source or sink up to ±500μA while maintaining specified output voltage accuracy and regulation. At 500μA load, dropout voltage is guaranteed ≤200mV, and load regulation is 0.14μV/μA for sourcing-ensuring <70μV total shift across full load range. This capability eliminates need for external buffer amplifiers in most precision analog circuits.
Does the MAX6025AEUR+T require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, the MAX6025AEUR+T is internally compensated and stable with output capacitance from 0 to 2.2nF. Unlike many voltage references, it does not require an external capacitor for phase margin or frequency stability. This simplifies layout and saves PCB area-especially valuable in SOT23-3 designs where board space is at a premium.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the MAX6025AEUR+T to regulate properly?
The MAX6025AEUR+T requires a minimum input voltage of VOUT + 0.2V = 2.7V to maintain regulation at full load. The absolute maximum input is 12.6V. Within this range, supply current varies by only 0.8μA per volt-making it highly efficient across varying battery voltages in portable systems.
How does the MAX6025AEUR+T compare to shunt-mode voltage references in terms of power efficiency?
Unlike shunt-mode references that waste current through a series resistor, the MAX6025AEUR+T's series-mode architecture draws only 35μA quiescent current independent of load. Its supply current varies just 0.8μA/V with input voltage-reducing wasted power in battery systems and eliminating resistor heat dissipation and layout sensitivity inherent to shunt designs.
Is the MAX6025AEUR+T suitable for use with high-resolution ADCs like 24-bit sigma-delta converters?
Yes, the MAX6025AEUR+T is specifically suited for 24-bit sigma-delta ADCs. Its 0.2% initial accuracy, <15ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 130ppm temperature hysteresis, and 50ppm/1000h long-term stability meet metrology-grade requirements. Low 125μVRMS (10Hz–10kHz) noise ensures minimal quantization uncertainty in precision measurement systems.
