Product details
Overview
REF195FS-REEL from Analog Devices is a precision micropower low-dropout (LDO) voltage reference delivering a stable 5.00 V output with ±2 mV initial accuracy, 5 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 45 μA max supply current. It operates from supplies as low as 100 mV above output voltage and supports up to 30 mA load current-ideal for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the REF195FS-REEL datasheet, REF195FS-REEL pinout, REF195FS-REEL application, or REF195FS-REEL equivalent, key selection considerations include its sleep-mode capability (15 μA), 0.5 V dropout at 10 mA, 50 μVp-p (0.1–10 Hz) output noise, and SOIC_N-8 package compatibility with Kelvin-sensing layouts in loop-powered sensor systems.
Technical Context
The REF195FS-REEL uses a patented curvature-corrected band gap core with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve 5 ppm/°C max TC over −40°C to +85°C and 2 ppm/°C typical TC over −40°C to +125°C. Its internal sleep control circuit disables output and reduces quiescent current to ≤15 μA when the SLEEP pin is driven low (≤0.8 V).
Dropout voltage is specified at 0.50 V (VS = 5.50 V, ILOAD = 10 mA) and 1.30 V (VS = 6.30 V, ILOAD = 30 mA), enabling operation from ultra-low headroom supplies. Load regulation is 2–4 ppm/mA and line regulation is 2–4 ppm/V (E grade, 25°C), both including self-heating effects.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Output Voltage | 5.00 V - precisely trimmed for direct use with 5 V ADCs, DACs, and microcontroller analog peripherals. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±2 mV maximum (E grade) - enables 16-bit system accuracy without post-calibration in factory-set instruments. |
| Temperature Coefficient | 5 ppm/°C max (−40°C to +85°C) - ensures <±0.5 mV drift across industrial temperature range. |
| Supply Current | 45 μA max (active), 15 μA max (sleep) - extends battery life in solar- or loop-powered field sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.50 V at 10 mA - allows operation from 5.5 V supply in energy-constrained 5 V systems. |
| Output Noise | 50 μVp-p (0.1–10 Hz) - minimizes quantization uncertainty in high-resolution data acquisition. |
| Load Regulation | 2 ppm/mA (E grade, 25°C) - maintains stability under dynamic load changes in smart sensor transmitters. |
Pinout & Package
REF195FS-REEL is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC_N (SOIC-8 narrow-body) package, pin-compatible with industry-standard SOIC-8 footprints and compatible with automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (TP) | Factory test point | Reserved for Zener-zap trimming; must remain unconnected in end application. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR4550BRZ-R7 | 5.0 V, 3 ppm/°C max TC, 950 μA supply current, 300 mV dropout, SOIC-8 | Higher power, lower TC; suited for lab-grade equipment, not battery-operated devices | Select ADR4550BRZ-R7 only if ultra-low TC outweighs 21× higher quiescent current. |
| MAX6126AASA50+ | 5.0 V, 6 ppm/°C max TC, 120 μA supply current, 300 mV dropout, SOIC-8 | Higher IQ, slightly higher TC; includes integrated output buffer for driving heavy capacitive loads | Choose MAX6126AASA50+ when driving >1 nF bypass capacitance or requiring rail-to-rail output drive. |
Compared with REF195FS-REEL, ADR4550BRZ-R7 offers superior temperature stability but consumes 21× more current-making it unsuitable for portable or energy-harvesting designs. MAX6126AASA50+ adds output buffering at the cost of higher quiescent current and marginally worse TC, trading micropower efficiency for drive strength.

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the REF195FS-REEL?
The REF195FS-REEL delivers up to 30 mA of continuous output current while maintaining specified accuracy and regulation performance. At 30 mA, dropout voltage rises to 1.30 V (VS = 6.30 V), and load regulation remains within 4 ppm/mA for E-grade units at 25°C. This makes REF195FS-REEL suitable for driving ADC references, op-amp bias networks, and small logic rails without external buffers.
Does the REF195FS-REEL require an output capacitor, and if so, what value and type?
Yes, the REF195FS-REEL requires a 1 μF ceramic capacitor connected between the OUTPUT and GND pins for stability and noise reduction. The datasheet specifies this as mandatory for proper operation. X7R or C0G dielectrics are recommended; tantalum or electrolytic capacitors are not advised due to ESR and aging effects. Placement should be within 5 mm of the device pins to minimize parasitic inductance.
How does sleep mode affect the output voltage and wake-up time of the REF195FS-REEL?
In sleep mode (SLEEP pin ≤0.8 V), the REF195FS-REEL disables its output stage and reduces supply current to ≤15 μA; output voltage drops to near 0 V with no sourcing capability. Wake-up time-the interval from SLEEP rising above 2.4 V to output settling within ±0.5 mV of 5.00 V-is typically <10 μs. This behavior is fully characterized and guaranteed across −40°C to +85°C for REF195FS-REEL.
Can the REF195FS-REEL be used in automotive applications?
The REF195FS-REEL is specified over the extended industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) with typical performance validated to +125°C, making it suitable for under-hood and cabin automotive subsystems such as battery monitoring, sensor interfaces, and infotainment power management. However, it is not AEC-Q200 qualified; for mission-critical automotive applications, consult Analog Devices' automotive-grade alternatives like the ADR445 or ADR4550 with full qualification documentation.
What is the long-term stability specification for the REF195FS-REEL, and how is it measured?
The REF195FS-REEL exhibits 1.2 mV maximum long-term stability after 1000 hours of operation at 125°C-measured as noncumulative output voltage drift under accelerated life testing. This specification reflects worst-case drift in the first 1000-hour period; subsequent periods show significantly lower drift. The value applies to all grades (E/F/G) and is verified per JEDEC JESD22-A108 methodology, ensuring predictable aging behavior in high-reliability instrumentation.
