Product details
Overview
REF192ES-REEL from Analog Devices is a precision micropower low-dropout voltage reference IC delivering 2.50 V output with ±2 mV initial accuracy, 5 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 45 μA max supply current-designed for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in portable and solar-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the REF192ES-REEL datasheet, REF192ES-REEL pinout, REF192ES-REEL application, or REF192ES-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (1.00 V @ 10 mA), sleep-mode current (15 μA), load regulation (4 ppm/mA), and extended industrial temperature operation (−40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The REF192ES-REEL implements a patented curvature-corrected band gap core with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve stable 2.50 V output across temperature and load. Its low-dropout architecture enables operation with only 100 mV headroom above output voltage.
Sleep mode is controlled via TTL/CMOS-compatible SLEEP pin (VH ≥ 2.4 V, VL ≤ 0.8 V), reducing supply current to ≤15 μA while disabling output-critical for battery-cycled sensor nodes and loop-powered transmitters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Output Voltage | 2.50 V - precisely trimmed reference for 12-bit to 16-bit data converters requiring stable mid-supply bias. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±2 mV maximum at 25°C - ensures <0.08% full-scale error before calibration in precision measurement front-ends. |
| Temp Coefficient | 5 ppm/°C max (−40°C to +85°C) - contributes ≤125 μV drift over full industrial range, enabling uncalibrated operation in field instruments. |
| Dropout Voltage | 1.00 V @ ILOAD = 10 mA - supports operation from 3.5 V supplies, compatible with single-cell Li-ion or dual-cell alkaline systems. |
| Supply Current | 45 μA max (active), 15 μA max (sleep) - extends battery life to years in wake-sleep sensor nodes with infrequent sampling. |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 25 μV p-p - low enough to avoid degrading ENOB in 16-bit SAR ADCs without additional filtering. |
| Load Regulation | 4 ppm/mA - maintains output stability under dynamic load changes typical in multiplexed analog input stages. |
Pinout & Package
REF192ES-REEL is housed in an 8-lead SOIC_N (SOIC-8 narrow-body) package, pin-compatible with industry-standard SOIC-8 footprints and reflow-process compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (TP) | Factory Test Point | Zener-zap trim node; must remain unconnected in circuit-no user access or routing permitted. |
| 2 (VS) | Positive Supply Input | Accepts 3.5 V to 15 V; requires ≥1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND for stability and noise reduction. |
| 3 (SLEEP) | Digital Sleep Control | TTL/CMOS-compatible input; logic low disables output and reduces current to ≤15 μA. |
| 4 (GND) | Analog Ground Reference | Primary return path for reference output and internal bias; must be tied to clean system ground plane. |
| 5 (TP) | Factory Test Point | Second Zener-zap node; electrically isolated during operation-leave floating and unconnected. |
| 6 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; no bond wire or circuit connection-must remain unconnected. |
| 7 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; no bond wire or circuit connection-must remain unconnected. |
| 8 (OUTPUT) | Precision Reference Output | Delivers regulated 2.50 V; requires 1 μF capacitor to GND per datasheet for transient stability and noise suppression. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR3425ARJZ-R7 | 2.5 V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco, 4.5 μA supply current, no sleep pin, SOT-23-5 package. | Lower power but lacks digital enable; unsuitable for wake-sleep architectures requiring output disable. | Select when minimal quiescent current dominates over controllable shutdown and SOIC-8 layout compatibility. |
| MAX6126AASA+T | 2.5 V output, 3 ppm/°C max tempco, 120 μA supply current, no sleep mode, SOIC-8 package. | Higher drive capability (20 mA) but higher current draw; no sleep control limits battery lifetime in cyclic sensing. | Select when higher output current is required and sleep functionality is not needed-e.g., always-on industrial controllers. |

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the REF192ES-REEL?
The REF192ES-REEL delivers up to 30 mA of output current at 25°C, with guaranteed performance to 25 mA across −40°C to +85°C. At 30 mA, dropout voltage rises to 1.40 V (VS = 3.9 V), and load regulation remains within 10 ppm/mA-making it suitable for driving ADC references, op-amp bias networks, and small DAC loads without external buffering.
Does the REF192ES-REEL require an output capacitor, and if so, what value and type?
Yes, the REF192ES-REEL requires a minimum 1 μF ceramic capacitor between OUTPUT and GND for stability and noise suppression, as specified in the datasheet. X7R or C0G dielectrics are recommended; tantalum or aluminum electrolytics are not advised due to ESR and aging effects that may degrade transient response and long-term accuracy.
How does the SLEEP pin function on the REF192ES-REEL, and what are its voltage thresholds?
The SLEEP pin on the REF192ES-REEL is a TTL/CMOS-compatible digital control input: logic low (≤0.8 V) disables the output and reduces supply current to ≤15 μA; logic high (≥2.4 V) enables normal operation. Input leakage is ≤8 μA magnitude in either state, allowing direct interfacing with most microcontrollers without level-shifting or pull-up resistors.
Is the REF192ES-REEL qualified for automotive applications?
The REF192ES-REEL is specified over the extended industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) with typical performance validated to +125°C, and Analog Devices documents its suitability for automotive subsystems such as body electronics and sensor interfaces-though it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For full automotive qualification, consult the manufacturer's automotive-grade variants or application support.
What is the long-term stability specification for the REF192ES-REEL, and how is it measured?
The REF192ES-REEL exhibits 1.2 mV maximum long-term stability after 1000 hours of operation at +125°C, as defined in the datasheet. This noncumulative drift reflects the first 1000-hour period only; subsequent periods show significantly lower drift. The specification ensures predictable aging behavior in mission-critical instrumentation deployed for >10-year service life.
