Product details
Overview
MAX6070DAUT12/V+ from Analog Devices is a precision 1.25V low-noise, low-drift series voltage reference in a 6-pin SOT23 package. It delivers ±0.04% initial accuracy, 6ppm/°C max temperature drift (A grade), and 4.8µVP-P 1/f noise (0.1Hz–10Hz) at 1.25V output, enabling high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in industrial sensor signal chains.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ datasheet, MAX6070DAUT12/V+ pinout, MAX6070DAUT12/V+ application, or MAX6070DAUT12/V+ equivalent, this device is selected for ultra-stable excitation in precision current sources, high-resolution data acquisition front-ends, and automotive-grade analog monitoring systems requiring AEC-Q100 qualification.
Technical Context
The MAX6070DAUT12/V+ implements a bandgap-based series reference architecture with dual-output force-sense topology (OUTF/GNDF and OUTS/GNDS), enabling Kelvin sensing to reject PCB trace resistance errors. Its integrated FILTER pin supports external 0.1µF capacitor bypassing to suppress wideband noise above 10kHz.
It operates across –40°C to +125°C with 2.7V to 5.5V supply input, 150µA typical quiescent current, and ±10mA load capability-supporting both sourcing and sinking while maintaining 0.2% output regulation over full load and temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.250V ±0.04% at +25°C - tight tolerance enables direct interface with 12-bit+ SAR ADCs without calibration. |
| Temp Drift (max) | 6ppm/°C (A grade) - ensures ≤75ppm total drift over –40°C to +125°C, critical for uncalibrated industrial sensors. |
| 1/f Noise | 4.8µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) - minimizes low-frequency error in precision weigh scales and strain gauge bridges. |
| Supply Current | 150µA typ - allows battery-powered portable instrumentation with >10-year shelf life on coin cell. |
| Load Current | ±10mA - supports driving 10kΩ DAC reference inputs or 100Ω precision current source loads directly. |
| Dropout Voltage | 230mV max at 10mA - permits operation from 1.5V supply rails when VOUT = 1.25V, improving power efficiency. |
| Ripple Rejection | 89dB at 60Hz - rejects AC mains coupling in PLC analog I/O modules without additional filtering. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6+5/U6+5A), 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint, RoHS-compliant, rated for –40°C to +125°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - FILTER | High-frequency noise filter input | Accepts 0.1µF capacitor to GND; enables 10Hz–10kHz thermal noise reduction by >30dB when used. |
| 2 - GNDF | Force ground return | Carries return current for OUTF path; must be routed separately from GNDS to avoid IR drop in sense path. |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic; draws <1µA; enables fast shutdown (6µs settling) for power-gated sensor nodes. |
| 4 - IN | Supply input | Accepts 2.7V–5.5V; internal LDO regulates reference core-rejects supply ripple up to 89dB. |
| 5 - OUTS | Sense output | Connects directly to load ground; provides feedback to internal amplifier to compensate trace resistance. |
| 6 - OUTF | Force output | Delivers regulated 1.25V; shorted to OUTS near load to close Kelvin loop and eliminate PCB resistance error. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Force-sense output topology | Eliminates voltage error from PCB trace resistance up to 1Ω-critical for 0.01% system accuracy. |
| Filter-enabled wideband noise suppression | Reduces 10Hz–10kHz thermal noise from 6µVRMS to 2.5µVRMS with 0.1µF CFILTER. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control sensor biasing and ADAS power monitoring. |
| Low 150µA quiescent current | Enables always-on precision references in energy-harvesting IoT nodes with µW-level budgets. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF1012AIDBVR | 1.25V, 5ppm/°C max drift, but no force-sense outputs or FILTER pin; 200µA IQ. | Lacks Kelvin sensing-unsuitable for high-accuracy current sources with long PCB traces. | Select when board space is constrained and trace resistance <50mΩ; verify layout-induced error budget. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ at room temperature?
The MAX6070DAUT12/V+ guarantees ±0.04% initial output voltage accuracy at +25°C, corresponding to ±0.5mV deviation from its nominal 1.250V output. This specification is 100% production tested and applies to the A-grade variant indicated by the "D" in the part number suffix.
Does the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ support Kelvin (force-sense) connections, and how are they implemented?
Yes, the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ implements a true force-sense architecture with dedicated OUTF/GNDF and OUTS/GNDS terminals. OUTF delivers the regulated 1.25V, while OUTS provides the feedback node-shorting them near the load cancels voltage drop across PCB traces, preserving accuracy even with 1Ω interconnect resistance.
Can the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ be used in automotive applications, and what qualification does it hold?
Yes, the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive use. It operates reliably from –40°C to +125°C and meets stress testing requirements for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock-making it suitable for battery monitoring, engine control, and ADAS subsystems.
How does the FILTER pin on the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ reduce noise, and what capacitor value is recommended?
The FILTER pin on the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ accepts an external 0.1µF capacitor to ground, which forms a low-pass filter that reduces thermal noise in the 10Hz–10kHz band by up to 50%. With CFILTER = 0.1µF, the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ achieves 2.5µVRMS noise versus 6µVRMS without filtering.
What is the minimum supply voltage required for the MAX6070DAUT12/V+ to maintain regulation at full load?
The MAX6070DAUT12/V+ requires a minimum supply voltage of 2.7V to maintain regulation at 25°C. At full ±10mA load and over –40°C to +125°C, the dropout voltage is specified at 230mV max-so VIN must be ≥1.48V to sustain 1.25V output, though 2.7V is the guaranteed operational lower limit per datasheet.
