Product details
Overview
The MAX6176AASA/GG8 from Maxim Integrated is a high-precision, low-noise 10V voltage reference with integrated temperature sensor output, designed for metrology-grade analog signal chains. It delivers ±0.05% initial accuracy, 3ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +125°C, and 18µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) noise - enabling use in 18-bit+ SAR ADCs, precision DACs, and digital voltmeters requiring stable excitation or calibration references.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6176AASA/GG8 datasheet, MAX6176AASA/GG8 pinout, MAX6176AASA/GG8 application, or MAX6176AASA/GG8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10V output stability under sourcing up to 30mA, TRIM-adjustable output range (±6%), TEMP output linearity (2.1mV/°C), and AEC-Q100-compatibility in automotive-grade packaging.
Technical Context
The MAX6176AASA/GG8 employs bandgap-based curvature-corrected topology with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve ultra-low drift. Its internal TEMP output provides a linear 2.1mV/°C voltage proportional to die temperature, calibrated at 630mV at +25°C, enabling on-chip thermal monitoring without external sensors.
It features active short-circuit protection (60mA sink to GND, 3mA sink to IN), operates from 12V to 40V input, draws only 340µA typical quiescent current, and remains stable with capacitive loads up to 100µF - eliminating mandatory output bypassing while supporting fast turn-on settling (400µs to 0.1% at 10V).

Pinout & Package
The MAX6176AASA/GG8 is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package with exposed pad (GG8 suffix denotes green, lead-free, RoHS-compliant variant). Pin 1 and Pin 8 are internally connected (I.C.) and must remain unconnected; Pin 7 is no-connect (N.C.).

| Pin 4: GND | Analog ground reference | Must be tied to clean system ground plane; shared return for IN, OUT, TRIM, and TEMP |
| Pin 5: TRIM | Voltage-adjustment control node | Connects to center tap of resistive divider between OUT and GND; enables ±6% output fine-tuning |
| Pin 6: OUT | Precision 10V reference output | Low-impedance source; stable with 0–100µF capacitive loads; short-circuit protected |

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, 3ppm/°C max tempco, but no TEMP output; higher 4.5µVP-P noise (0.1Hz–10Hz); requires 2.5V min headroom | Lacks integrated temperature sensing - external sensor needed for thermal compensation | Select when TEMP functionality is unnecessary and lower noise floor is critical |
| REF5010IDR | 10V output, 3ppm/°C max tempco, 12µVP-P noise, but no TRIM or TEMP pins; SO-8 package; 12V min input | No output adjustability or die temperature monitoring - fixed-function reference only | Select for cost-sensitive industrial applications where calibration flexibility and thermal telemetry are not required |
Compared with ADR4510BRZ and REF5010IDR, the MAX6176AASA/GG8 uniquely integrates TRIM adjustability, die-temperature sensing, and short-circuit protection in a single SO-8 package - simplifying calibration workflows and enabling self-monitoring in safety-critical systems without adding components.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed initial accuracy of the MAX6176AASA/GG8?
The MAX6176AASA/GG8 guarantees ±0.05% initial accuracy at +25°C with no load, corresponding to ±5mV tolerance around its nominal 10.000V output. This specification is verified during 100% production testing and applies to all units shipped under the 'A' grade designation - distinct from the looser ±0.1% tolerance of the 'B' grade variants like MAX6176BASA/GG8.
Does the MAX6176AASA/GG8 require an output capacitor for stability?
No, the MAX6176AASA/GG8 does not require an output capacitor for stability and is explicitly characterized as stable with capacitive loads from 0 to 100µF. This eliminates mandatory bypassing, reduces PCB area, and avoids potential phase-margin degradation from poorly placed or aged ceramics - a key advantage in compact, high-reliability instrumentation where layout constraints limit decoupling options.
How is the TEMP output of the MAX6176AASA/GG8 calibrated and what is its accuracy?
The TEMP output of the MAX6176AASA/GG8 is factory-calibrated to 630mV at +25°C with a nominal slope of 2.1mV/°C across –40°C to +125°C. Its absolute accuracy is ±155mV over temperature, translating to approximately ±1.5°C die temperature measurement error when used with a precision ADC. Self-heating effects are minimized by the device's low 340µA quiescent current, ensuring TJ ≈ TA under typical operating conditions.
Can the MAX6176AASA/GG8 be used in automotive applications?
Yes - the MAX6176AASA/GG8 operates over the full automotive temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) and meets AEC-Q100 stress-test requirements for reliability. While the MAX6176AASA/GG8 itself is not individually AEC-Q100 certified (certification applies to MAX6174BASA/V+ and MAX6175BASA/V+ per datasheet), its design, process, and qualification flow align with automotive-grade standards, and it is widely deployed in Tier-1 BMS and ADAS subsystems requiring 10V reference stability under harsh thermal and electrical conditions.
What is the maximum load current the MAX6176AASA/GG8 can source while maintaining specified accuracy?
The MAX6176AASA/GG8 is specified to maintain its 3ppm/°C tempco and 0.05% initial accuracy while sourcing up to 10mA (per load regulation spec). It can deliver up to 30mA total, but output voltage deviation increases to 15ppm/mA above 10mA - meaning at 30mA load, expect up to ±300µV shift from nominal 10.000V. For metrology applications, limiting load to ≤10mA preserves full datasheet accuracy; higher currents require system-level calibration compensation.
