Product details
Overview
MAX6177AASA+ from Maxim Integrated is a high-precision, low-noise voltage reference with integrated temperature sensor output, delivering a factory-trimmed +3.3V reference (±0.06% initial accuracy), 1.5–3 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +125°C, and 5 µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) noise - used in automotive-grade 16-bit ADC/DAC systems requiring stable excitation and on-die thermal monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6177AASA+ datasheet, MAX6177AASA+ pinout, MAX6177AASA+ application, or MAX6177AASA+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TRIM/TEMP interface design guidance, automotive temperature range validation, and direct alternatives for precision analog signal chains where reference stability, low drift, and die-temperature correlation are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
The MAX6177AASA+ employs bandgap-based architecture with proprietary curvature-correction circuitry and laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve ≤3 ppm/°C tempco and ±0.06% initial accuracy. Its TEMP pin provides a linear 2.1 mV/°C output referenced to die temperature, enabling direct thermal compensation without external sensors.
It features active trimming via the TRIM pin (±6% adjustment range using external resistive divider), operates from 5.3V to 40V input, sources up to 30mA, sinks 2mA, and remains stable with capacitive loads up to 100µF - eliminating mandatory output bypassing while supporting fast turn-on (180 µs to 0.1% for 3.3V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | +3.300 V (nominal), ±0.06% initial accuracy at +25°C - ensures ≤0.99 mV absolute error before calibration in 16-bit 3.3V full-scale systems. |
| Tempco (TCVOUT) | 1.5–3 ppm/°C (max, –40°C to +125°C) - limits reference drift to ≤1.06 mV over full automotive range, meeting <1 LSB error for 16-bit converters. |
| Noise (0.1Hz–10Hz) | 5 µVP-P - contributes <0.015 LSB RMS noise in 16-bit 3.3V ADCs, preserving effective resolution. |
| Supply Current | 320–500 µA (–40°C to +125°C) - enables low-power operation in battery-backed instrumentation and always-on vehicle modules. |
| TEMP Output | 630 mV at +25°C, 2.1 mV/°C slope - provides calibrated die-temperature readout with ±1.5°C accuracy when self-heating is managed. |
| Load Drive | Sources 30 mA / sinks 2 mA - supports direct driving of SAR ADC references, op-amp bias networks, and small-signal transducers without buffering. |
| Input Range | +5.3V to +40V - accommodates wide-input automotive power rails and industrial 24V systems with ≥2V headroom margin. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6177AASA+ is housed in an 8-pin SO (Small Outline) package (package code S8+4, outline 21-0041), RoHS-compliant, with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 and Pin 8 are internally connected (I.C.), Pin 7 is no connection (N.C.).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 2) | Positive supply input | Accepts 5.3V–40V; requires local 0.1µF ceramic decoupling for optimal line-transient rejection. |
| TEMP (Pin 3) | Digital temperature transducer output | Provides 2.1 mV/°C analog voltage proportional to die temperature; must be buffered if loaded >10kΩ to avoid gain error. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Analog ground reference | Common return for IN, OUT, TRIM, and TEMP; must be low-impedance and separated from digital ground in mixed-signal layouts. |
| TRIM (Pin 5) | Voltage-adjustment interface | Accepts 0–VOUT divider voltage; enables ±6% fine-tuning of output with external potentiometer (e.g., MAX5436). |
| OUT (Pin 6) | Precision reference output | Delivers regulated +3.3V; stable with 0–100µF capacitive load; short-circuit protected (60mA to GND, 3mA to IN). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated die-temperature sensor | Linear 2.1 mV/°C TEMP output enables real-time thermal derating of reference drift and system-level compensation without external ICs. |
| No-output-capacitor stability | Eliminates mandatory 1–10µF output bypass, reducing PCB area and BOM count in space-constrained automotive modules. |
| Trim-enabled precision calibration | ±6% output adjustment via external resistor network allows field or production calibration to counteract board-level tolerances and aging effects. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified variant available | MAX6177AASA+ meets AEC-Q100 Grade 0 (–40°C to +125°C) requirements - validated for under-hood and ADAS ECU applications. |
| Low 1/f noise performance | 5 µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) ensures minimal contribution to DC measurement uncertainty in precision weigh scales and medical front-ends. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF5033IDR | 3 ppm/°C max tempco, 0.05% initial accuracy, 3.8 µVP-P noise, SO-8 package, but no TEMP output. | Lacks integrated temperature sensing; requires separate thermal IC for die-temp correlation. | Select when TEMP functionality is unnecessary and lowest possible 0.1Hz–10Hz noise is prioritized. |
| ADR4533BRZ | 2 ppm/°C max tempco, 0.02% initial accuracy, 4.5 µVP-P noise, SO-8, includes trim pin but no TEMP output. | Higher initial accuracy and lower noise, but no on-chip thermal transducer - limits closed-loop thermal compensation capability. | Choose for metrology-grade systems where reference stability dominates over integrated thermal awareness. |
Compared with REF5033IDR and ADR4533BRZ, MAX6177AASA+ uniquely integrates a calibrated 2.1 mV/°C die-temperature output alongside 3.3V reference generation - enabling single-component thermal-aware precision without added ICs, layout area, or calibration overhead.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed initial accuracy of the MAX6177AASA+?
The MAX6177AASA+ guarantees ±0.06% initial accuracy at +25°C, corresponding to ±1.98 mV error on its +3.3V nominal output. This specification is tested and binned during production, and applies across the full –40°C to +125°C operating range per the device's A-grade qualification.
Can the MAX6177AASA+ drive a 10µF output capacitor without instability?
Yes - the MAX6177AASA+ is explicitly characterized as stable with capacitive loads up to 100µF. Driving a 10µF capacitor improves transient response to load steps and reduces output ripple, with no risk of oscillation. Layout best practice remains placing the capacitor as close as possible to the OUT and GND pins.
How does the TEMP output of the MAX6177AASA+ correlate to actual junction temperature?
The TEMP pin outputs a voltage defined as VTEMP = TJ × 2.1 mV/°C, where TJ is the absolute junction temperature in °C. At +25°C ambient with negligible self-heating, VTEMP ≈ 630 mV. Self-heating must be subtracted using power dissipation and θJA (132°C/W multi-layer) to derive true die temperature.
Is the MAX6177AASA+ pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6173–MAX6177 family?
Yes - all MAX6173–MAX6177 variants share identical 8-pin SO packaging, pinout, and interface logic. The MAX6177AASA+ (3.3V) can be substituted for MAX6173AASA+ (2.5V) or MAX6175AASA+ (5.0V) on the same footprint, provided input voltage and load requirements remain within each device's specified range.
Does the MAX6177AASA+ require an external trimming resistor to operate?
No - the MAX6177AASA+ delivers its factory-trimmed +3.3V output with no external components required. The TRIM pin is left unconnected by default. An external resistive divider is only needed if ±6% output adjustment is required for system-level calibration or tolerance stacking compensation.
