Product details
Overview
The MAX6035ESA25+ from Analog Devices is a high-voltage, precision micropower series-mode voltage reference delivering a stable 2.5V output with ±0.2% initial accuracy and 40ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +85°C. It operates from 4.9V to 33V supply, draws only 73µA typical quiescent current, and supports ±2mA sink / +10mA source load capability - ideal for high-accuracy 12-bit ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6035ESA25+ datasheet, MAX6035ESA25+ pinout, MAX6035ESA25+ application, or MAX6035ESA25+ equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SO-8 package layout, real-world load/line regulation behavior, thermal hysteresis (135ppm), and direct alternatives with documented parameter trade-offs - all confirmed against Analog Devices' official MAX6035 datasheet Rev 4 (2025).
Technical Context
The MAX6035ESA25+ is a three-terminal series-mode reference using proprietary curvature-correction circuitry and laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve low drift. Unlike shunt references, it requires no external bias resistor and exhibits supply-current independence (ΔIIN/ΔVIN ≤ 0.7µA/V) across its full 4.9V–33V input range.
Internally compensated and stable with up to 5µF capacitive loads, it eliminates mandatory output capacitors while maintaining 0.1% settling in 240µs (COUT = 1µF). Its BiCMOS process (84 transistors) enables ultra-low noise (21µVP-P, 0.1Hz–10Hz) and 86dB ripple rejection at 120Hz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.500V ±0.2% (±5mV) at +25°C - ensures 12-bit converter full-scale error < 0.5 LSB |
| Tempco (–40°C to +85°C) | 40ppm/°C max - limits drift to ±3.4mV over full range, critical for industrial sensor calibration |
| Quiescent Current | 73µA typical, 95µA max - enables >10-year battery life in 10µA-sleep systems |
| Supply Range | 4.9V to 33V - supports direct connection to unregulated 12V/24V rails without pre-regulation |
| Load Drive | +10mA source / –2mA sink - directly biases ADC reference inputs and op-amp buffers without gain-stage overhead |
| Capacitive Load Stability | Stable with 0–5µF - removes need for output capacitor in space-constrained PCB layouts |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 135ppm - defines repeatability error after thermal cycling, essential for metrology-grade instruments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6035ESA25+ is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (SO-8, package code S8-2), with pins 1, 3, 5, 7, and 8 as no-connect (N.C.). The active terminals are IN (Pin 2), OUT (Pin 6), and GND (Pin 4).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 2 (IN) | Input Voltage Supply | Accepts 4.9V–33V; dropout voltage is 2.25V at 10mA load - sets minimum input headroom |
| Pin 4 (GND) | Analog Ground Reference | Single-point return for reference output; must be isolated from digital ground to avoid noise coupling |
| Pin 6 (OUT) | Precision 2.5V Output | Low-impedance buffered reference; capable of sourcing 10mA or sinking 2mA into load |
| Pins 1,3,5,7,8 | No Connection | Not internally bonded - must remain unconnected; floating or tied to GND has no effect |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Supply-Independent Quiescent Current | 73µA typical, varying only ±0.7µA/V across 4.9V–33V - eliminates supply-rail dependency in multi-voltage systems |
| Zero-External-Capacitor Operation | Internally compensated and stable with COUT = 0 - saves board area and BOM cost in compact data loggers |
| High PSRR | 86dB at 120Hz - rejects line-frequency ripple in AC-powered test equipment without additional filtering |
| Low Output Noise | 21µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz), 20µVRMS (10Hz–1kHz) - preserves SNR in 16-bit+ measurement front-ends |
| Wide Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial control cabinets and automotive under-hood auxiliary modules |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6035AAUR25-T | Same 2.5V output, ±0.2% accuracy, but 25ppm/°C tempco (vs. 40ppm) and –40°C to +125°C rating; uses 3-pin SOT23 package. | Preferred for extended-temperature embedded control where board space is constrained and higher tempco is unacceptable. | Select when operating above +85°C or requiring smallest possible footprint; verify SOT23 thermal dissipation (320mW) vs. SO-8 (470.6mW). |
| REF02CSA+ | 2.5V shunt reference; ±0.3% initial accuracy, 50ppm/°C tempco, requires external bias resistor; consumes ~1.2mA quiescent current. | Suitable for legacy designs with existing REF02 footprints and where power efficiency is secondary to cost. | Choose only if replacing REF02 in existing SO-8 layouts; expect 14× higher supply current and reduced load flexibility. |
Compared with MAX6035ESA25+, the MAX6035AAUR25-T offers tighter tempco and wider temperature range in a smaller package but lower power dissipation margin, while the REF02CSA+ provides pin-compatible drop-in replacement at the cost of significantly higher quiescent current and reduced accuracy.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for MAX6035ESA25+?
The MAX6035ESA25+ supports an absolute maximum input voltage of +36V, with guaranteed operation from 4.9V to 33V per its electrical characteristics table. Exceeding 36V risks permanent damage. Its wide 4.9V–33V range allows direct use with unregulated 12V or 24V industrial rails without pre-regulation - a key advantage over narrower-input references like the REF02.
Does MAX6035ESA25+ require an external output capacitor?
No, the MAX6035ESA25+ does not require an external output capacitor for stability - it is internally compensated and remains stable with 0–5µF capacitive loads. This eliminates a common BOM item and saves PCB area. An optional 0.1µF ceramic capacitor may be added near the output to improve transient response in high-dynamic-load applications, but it is never mandatory.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for MAX6035ESA25+?
The MAX6035ESA25+ has a thermal hysteresis of 135ppm, defined as the change in output voltage at +25°C before and after cycling the device from –40°C to +85°C. This value reflects repeatability error due to mechanical stress in the silicon and package; it is independent of temperature coefficient and must be budgeted separately in metrology-grade designs requiring sub-0.01% absolute accuracy.
How does MAX6035ESA25+ compare to REF02 in power consumption?
The MAX6035ESA25+ draws only 73µA typical quiescent current - 14× lower than the REF02's ~1.02mA. This difference arises because MAX6035ESA25+ is a series-mode reference with supply-current independence, whereas REF02 is a shunt device requiring external bias current that scales with supply voltage. In battery-powered systems, this translates to >10× longer runtime for MAX6035ESA25+.
Can MAX6035ESA25+ drive a 10kΩ load directly?
Yes. With a 2.5V output and ±2mA sink / +10mA source capability, the MAX6035ESA25+ can directly drive a 10kΩ load (drawing 250µA) while maintaining output accuracy within spec. Load regulation is specified at 350µV/mA (max) for sourcing - meaning worst-case deviation is <88µV, well within ±5mV initial accuracy. No buffer amplifier is needed for typical ADC reference or op-amp biasing loads.
