Product details
Overview
MAX6065BEUR-T from Maxim Integrated is a precision, low-dropout, micropower series voltage reference delivering a stable 5.000V output with ±0.4% initial accuracy and 20ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +85°C. It sources up to 5mA or sinks 2mA, draws only 90µA typical supply current, and operates down to 5.2V input (VOUT + 200mV), making it ideal for battery-powered 5V precision ADCs and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6065BEUR-T datasheet, MAX6065BEUR-T pinout, MAX6065BEUR-T application, or MAX6065BEUR-T equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, validated SOT23-3 pin mapping, application-specific value statements, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level differences.
Technical Context
The MAX6065BEUR-T is a three-terminal, series-mode voltage reference using proprietary curvature-correction circuitry and laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve high initial accuracy and ultra-low thermal drift. Its internal compensation eliminates need for external capacitors, and its supply current varies by only ≤8µA/V across 5.2V–12.6V input range.
It features low 50–200mV dropout at 1mA load, 65dB power-supply rejection at 120Hz, and 300µs turn-on settling time to 0.1% of final value (COUT = 50pF). Output noise is 60µVp-p (0.1Hz–10Hz), and long-term stability is 62ppm/1000hr at +25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.000V ±0.4% (max) at +25°C - ensures accurate full-scale reference for 12-bit+ 5V ADCs without calibration. |
| Temp Coefficient | 20ppm/°C (max) - limits output drift to ±1.7mV over –40°C to +85°C ambient, critical for field-deployed sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 50mV (typ) at 1mA load - enables operation from single Li-ion cell (4.2V) or 5V rail with minimal headroom loss. |
| Supply Current | 90µA (typ), ≤8µA/V variation - reduces quiescent power to <0.5mW at 5.5V, extending battery life in always-on devices. |
| Load Drive | Sources 5mA / sinks 2mA - directly drives SAR ADC reference inputs, op-amp bias networks, or small DACs without buffering. |
| Noise (0.1–10Hz) | 60µVp-p - contributes <0.0012% error to 5V full-scale, suitable for 16-bit precision measurement front-ends. |
| PSRR | 65dB at 120Hz - suppresses ripple from switching regulators feeding the reference, improving ADC SNR. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6065BEUR-T is housed in a 3-pin SOT23-3 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), with 1.3mm × 0.8mm footprint and 0.95mm height - optimized for space-constrained portable PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Input Voltage Supply | Accepts 5.2V–12.6V; requires no series resistor (unlike shunt references); decoupling with 0.1µF ceramic recommended for line transients. |
| 2 (OUT) | Precision Reference Output | Delivers regulated 5.000V; stable with capacitive loads ≥0.1µF; no external compensation capacitor needed. |
| 3 (GND) | Analog Ground Reference | Must be connected to clean analog ground plane; separates reference return from digital or power ground to minimize noise coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±0.4% Initial Accuracy | Reduces system calibration burden in factory test; enables single-point trim for 12-bit systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF5050AIDBVR | 0.05% initial accuracy, 3ppm/°C tempco, 1.2mA supply current, SO-6 package | Higher precision and lower noise, but 13× higher quiescent current and larger footprint | Select when absolute accuracy and long-term stability outweigh battery life and board space constraints. |
| ADR3450ARJZ-R7 | 0.1% initial accuracy, 10ppm/°C tempco, 120µA supply current, SOT23-3 package | Similar form factor and supply current, but tighter accuracy and tempco than MAX6065BEUR-T | Choose when upgrading from B-grade to A-grade performance while retaining same PCB layout and thermal profile. |
Compared with REF5050AIDBVR and ADR3450ARJZ-R7, the MAX6065BEUR-T offers the lowest quiescent current in SOT23-3 for 5V references, trading modest accuracy for exceptional micropower efficiency - optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-limited designs where ±0.4% is sufficient.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MAX6065BEUR-T?
The absolute maximum input voltage for MAX6065BEUR-T is +13.5V referenced to GND. However, the guaranteed operating range is 5.2V to 12.6V, where all electrical specifications-including line regulation, dropout, and supply current-are fully characterized and warranted across –40°C to +85°C.
Does MAX6065BEUR-T require an output capacitor for stability?
No, MAX6065BEUR-T does not require an output capacitor for stability due to internal compensation. It remains stable with capacitive loads up to 1µF. An optional 0.1µF ceramic capacitor may be added to improve transient response in applications with fast load steps, but it is not necessary for basic operation.
What is the dropout voltage specification for MAX6065BEUR-T at full load?
At 1mA load current, the dropout voltage for MAX6065BEUR-T is specified as 50mV (typical) and 200mV (maximum). This means the device maintains regulation as long as input voltage stays ≥5.2V (5.0V + 200mV), enabling reliable operation from aging batteries or marginally regulated supplies.
How does the supply current of MAX6065BEUR-T vary with input voltage?
MAX6065BEUR-T exhibits ≤8µA/V variation in supply current across its 5.2V–12.6V input range. At +25°C, typical supply current is 90µA and remains nearly constant - unlike shunt references, which draw current proportional to input voltage - maximizing efficiency across varying battery states.
Is MAX6065BEUR-T pin-compatible with other parts in the MAX6061–MAX6068 family?
Yes, all MAX6061–MAX6068 variants, including MAX6065BEUR-T, share identical SOT23-3 pinout (IN, OUT, GND) and package dimensions. This allows drop-in replacement across output voltages (1.25V–5.0V) without PCB redesign, provided input voltage and load requirements are re-verified for the new variant.
