Product details
Overview
REF195GS-REEL from Analog Devices is a precision micropower low-dropout (LDV) voltage reference IC delivering a stable 5.00 V output with ±2 mV initial accuracy, 5 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and dropout voltage as low as 0.50 V at 10 mA load. It operates from supplies only 100 mV above its output and supports portable instrumentation, high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing, and solar-powered sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the REF195GS-REEL datasheet, REF195GS-REEL pinout, REF195GS-REEL application, or REF195GS-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include its 45 μA supply current, sleep mode reducing current to 15 μA, 30 mA output drive capability, and SOIC_N-8 package compatibility with Kelvin-sensing layouts for metrology-grade stability.
Technical Context
The REF195GS-REEL uses a patented curvature-corrected band gap core with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve 5 ppm/°C max TCVO over −40°C to +85°C and 2 ppm/°C typical TCVO over −40°C to +125°C. Its LDV architecture enables regulation with input voltages as low as 5.50 V at 10 mA load.
It integrates a TTL/CMOS-compatible SLEEP pin that disables output and reduces quiescent current to ≤15 μA, while maintaining short-circuit protection and requiring only a 1 μF output bypass capacitor for stability. Load regulation is specified at 4 ppm/mA (E grade), and line regulation at 4 ppm/V (E grade) at 25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Output Voltage | 5.00 V - precisely trimmed for high-accuracy analog signal chains and reference-grade DAC/ADC operation |
| Initial Accuracy | ±2 mV maximum (E grade) - enables 16-bit+ system accuracy without post-calibration in factory-set applications |
| Temp Coefficient | 5 ppm/°C maximum (−40°C to +85°C, E grade) - ensures ≤0.5 mV drift across industrial temperature range |
| Supply Current | 45 μA maximum - supports multi-year battery life in portable instruments and loop-powered sensors |
| Sleep Mode Current | 15 μA maximum - allows ultra-low-power wake-on-event architectures with fast output re-enable |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.50 V at 10 mA load - permits operation from single Li-ion or 5.5 V rail with margin for aging and ripple |
| Output Noise | 50 μV p-p (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) - suitable for 24-bit delta-sigma ADCs without external filtering |
Pinout & Package
REF195GS-REEL is housed in an 8-lead SOIC_N (SOIC narrow-body) package, pin-compatible with industry-standard SOIC-8 footprints and optimized for thermal stability and low parasitic inductance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (TP) | Factory Test Point | Zener-zap trimming node - must remain unconnected in circuit; not for user routing or decoupling |
| 2 (VS) | Positive Supply Input | Accepts 5.10 V to 15 V; dropout as low as 0.50 V enables efficient use of marginal supply rails |
| 3 (SLEEP) | Digital Sleep Control | TTL/CMOS-compatible input; logic low disables output and reduces IQ to ≤15 μA |
| 4 (GND) | Analog Ground Reference | Primary return path for output current and internal bias; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 5 (TP) | Factory Test Point | Second Zener-zap node - unconnected in application; no electrical function beyond factory calibration |
| 6 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; must be left floating - not tied to GND or any other potential |
| 7 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; must be left floating - avoids unintended coupling or leakage paths |
| 8 (OUTPUT) | Precision Voltage Output | 5.00 V regulated output; requires 1 μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and noise suppression |

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 output, 3 ppm/°C max TCVO, 20 μA supply current, but no sleep mode and higher minimum input voltage (6.0 V) | Better TCVO and lower IQ, but incompatible with sub-6 V supplies and lacks power-gating capability | Choose ADR4550BRZ-R7 when ultimate temperature stability is required and supply >6.0 V is guaranteed. |
| MAX6126ASA50+T | 5.0 V output, 5 ppm/°C max TCVO, 35 μA supply current, no sleep pin, SO-8 package | Similar accuracy and TCVO, but lacks sleep control and has slightly higher noise (60 μV p-p) | Choose MAX6126ASA50+T when board space allows same footprint and sleep functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with REF195GS-REEL, ADR4550BRZ-R7 offers superior temperature stability but sacrifices supply flexibility and power gating; MAX6126ASA50+T matches key specs closely but omits sleep mode and adds 10 μV p-p noise - making REF195GS-REEL optimal for battery- or solar-powered systems needing dynamic power control.

FAQ
What is the nominal output voltage and initial accuracy of the REF195GS-REEL?
The REF195GS-REEL provides a nominal output voltage of 5.00 V with initial accuracy of ±2 mV maximum for the E grade at 25°C. This specification is achieved via laser trimming of thin-film resistors and excludes solder heat-induced shift, which is addressed separately in the Applications Information section of the datasheet.
Does the REF195GS-REEL support sleep mode, and how is it activated?
Yes, the REF195GS-REEL supports sleep mode via its dedicated SLEEP pin (Pin 3). Applying a logic low (≤0.8 V) disables the output and reduces supply current to ≤15 μA. A logic high (≥2.4 V) re-enables regulation with typical wake-up time under 10 μs. The REF195GS-REEL sleep function is fully compatible with standard TTL and CMOS logic drivers.
What package type and pin configuration does the REF195GS-REEL use?
The REF195GS-REEL is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC_N (narrow-body SOIC) package, identified by the "GS" suffix. Its pinout includes VS (Pin 2), SLEEP (Pin 3), GND (Pin 4), OUTPUT (Pin 8), two factory test points (Pins 1 and 5), and two no-connect terminals (Pins 6 and 7) - all documented in Figure 1 of the REF19x datasheet Rev. L.
What is the minimum supply voltage required for the REF195GS-REEL to regulate at full load?
The REF195GS-REEL achieves regulation with a minimum dropout voltage of 0.50 V at 10 mA load, meaning it requires a supply voltage of at least 5.50 V to maintain 5.00 V output under that condition. At 30 mA, dropout rises to 1.30 V, requiring ≥6.30 V input - enabling reliable operation from common 5.5 V or 6.0 V system rails.
Is an output capacitor required for stable operation of the REF195GS-REEL?
Yes, a 1 μF ceramic capacitor is required between the OUTPUT (Pin 8) and GND (Pin 4) pins for stable operation and optimal noise performance. This capacitor suppresses high-frequency instability and reduces 0.1 Hz–10 Hz output noise to the specified 50 μV p-p level. Larger values may improve PSRR but do not replace the mandatory 1 μF minimum.
