Product details
Overview
MAX6176AASA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-precision, low-noise 10V voltage reference with integrated temperature sensor output, designed for metrology-grade data acquisition systems. It delivers ±0.05% initial accuracy, 1.5–3 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +125°C, and 18 µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) noise - enabling sub-LSB stability in 16-bit+ ADC/DAC systems used in automotive battery management and industrial calibration equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6176AASA+ datasheet, MAX6176AASA+ pinout, MAX6176AASA+ application, or MAX6176AASA+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10V output with ±3% trim range, TEMP output (630 mV @ +25°C, 2.1 mV/°C), no-output-capacitor stability, and AEC-Q100-compatibility for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
The MAX6176AASA+ employs bandgap-based curvature-corrected architecture with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve ultra-low drift. Its proprietary temperature-coefficient correction circuit actively compensates second-order thermal effects across –40°C to +125°C, delivering guaranteed 3 ppm/°C max TCVOUT.
It integrates two independent analog outputs: a precision 10V reference (sourcing up to 30mA, sinking 2mA) and a linear die-temperature transducer (TEMP pin) with 2.1 mV/°C slope and ±155 mV total span over temperature. TRIM input enables ±6% output adjustment via external resistive divider without degrading long-term stability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 10.000 V ±0.005 V (±0.05% initial accuracy at +25°C, no load) |
| Tempco (TCVOUT) | 1.5–3 ppm/°C max over –40°C to +125°C - ensures ≤0.5 LSB error in 16-bit systems across full automotive range |
| Noise (0.1Hz–10Hz) | 18 µVP-P - supports 18.5+ ENOB in precision SAR ADCs without external filtering |
| Supply Current | 340–550 µA (typ/max at +25°C) - enables low-power portable instrumentation |
| TEMP Output | 630 mV ±155 mV @ –40°C to +125°C, 2.1 mV/°C slope - provides direct die-temperature readout with ±1.5°C accuracy |
| Load Drive | Sources 30 mA / sinks 2 mA - drives ADC reference inputs, op-amp buffers, and small DAC loads directly |

Pinout & Package
MAX6176AASA+ is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package (package code S8+4, outline 21-0041), RoHS-compliant, rated for –40°C to +125°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8 | I.C. | Internally connected - must remain unconnected on PCB |
| 2 | IN | Positive supply input (12V to 40V); accepts wide input range with 0.8 ppm/V line regulation |
| 3 | TEMP | Temperature-proportional analog output (630 mV @ +25°C); requires high-impedance ADC input |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling |
| 5 | TRIM | Voltage-adjust input; connects to center tap of resistor divider between OUT and GND for ±6% fine tuning |
| 6 | OUT | 10V precision reference output; capable of sourcing 30 mA with <2 ppm/mA load regulation |
| 7 | N.C. | No internal connection - left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR4510BRZ | 10V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco, but no TEMP output; higher 12 µVP-P noise; requires 1 µF output cap for stability | Lacks integrated temperature sensing; suited for pure reference-only roles where thermal monitoring is handled separately | Select when TEMP functionality is unnecessary and lower noise floor is critical |
| REF5010IDR | 10V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco, 10 µVP-P noise, no TEMP pin; sink-only (–10 mA), no sourcing capability | Cannot drive ADC reference inputs directly; requires external buffer for sourcing loads | Choose for ultra-low-noise, low-power applications with buffered reference distribution |
Compared with ADR4510BRZ and REF5010IDR, MAX6176AASA+ uniquely combines 10V precision referencing, integrated die-temperature sensing, and 30 mA sourcing in a single 8-pin SO package - eliminating discrete sensor and buffer components while maintaining metrology-grade stability.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed initial accuracy of MAX6176AASA+?
The MAX6176AASA+ guarantees ±0.05% initial accuracy at +25°C with no load, corresponding to ±5 mV tolerance on its 10.000 V nominal output. This specification is verified during 100% production testing and applies across the full operating temperature range when combined with its 3 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient - ensuring tight system-level calibration without post-manufacture trimming.
Does MAX6176AASA+ require an output bypass capacitor for stability?
No, MAX6176AASA+ does not require an output bypass capacitor for stability. It is internally compensated and remains stable with capacitive loads from 0 to 100 µF. This eliminates a common BOM item and saves PCB area - especially valuable in space-constrained applications like portable calibrators and automotive ECUs. Input decoupling with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is still recommended for optimal line-transient performance.
How is the TEMP output of MAX6176AASA+ calibrated and what is its accuracy?
The TEMP output of MAX6176AASA+ provides a voltage proportional to die temperature with a nominal slope of 2.1 mV/°C and 630 mV output at +25°C. Over –40°C to +125°C, it spans 300 mV to 1130 mV. Accuracy is limited primarily by self-heating and thermal gradients; under low-power, well-ventilated conditions, it achieves ±1.5°C typical die-temperature measurement accuracy - sufficient for thermal derating and safety monitoring without external calibration.
Can MAX6176AASA+ be used in automotive applications?
Yes, MAX6176AASA+ is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications. It operates over the full –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range, features short-circuit protection (60 mA to GND, 3 mA to IN), and maintains 3 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient and ±0.05% initial accuracy under automotive supply and thermal stress conditions - making it suitable for battery management systems, ADAS power domains, and engine control reference circuits.
What is the maximum load current that MAX6176AASA+ can source or sink?
MAX6176AASA+ can source up to 30 mA while maintaining specified output voltage accuracy and temperature coefficient. It can sink up to 2 mA. Load regulation is specified at 2–15 ppm/mA for sourcing and 90–900 ppm/mA for sinking - meaning output deviation remains below 0.3 mV for a 10 mA load change. This drive capability allows direct interfacing with most precision ADC reference inputs and op-amp buffers without external gain stages.
