Product details
Overview
REF35300QDBVR from Texas Instruments is a nanopower, high-precision series voltage reference delivering 3.0V output with ±0.05% initial accuracy, 12ppm/°C max temperature coefficient (−40°C to 105°C), and 650nA typical quiescent current in a 6-pin SOT-23 package. It supports precision sensor biasing and 12–16-bit data converter power supply in portable industrial instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the REF35300QDBVR datasheet, REF35300QDBVR pinout, REF35300QDBVR application, or REF35300QDBVR equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low IQ for battery life, 3.3ppmP-P 0.1Hz–10Hz noise, EN/NR pin control for dynamic power management, and −55°C to +125°C operational range for harsh environments.
Technical Context
The REF35300QDBVR implements a bandgap-based series reference architecture with integrated noise-reduction (NR) and enable (EN) terminals. Its 12ppm/°C tempco over −40°C to 105°C and 40ppm long-term stability at 1k hour are specified for the DBV (SOT-23) package variant. The device achieves 3.3ppmP-P low-frequency noise via external NR capacitor filtering and maintains 20ppm/mA load regulation when sourcing up to +10mA.
It operates from VIN = VREF + VDO (120mV @ 5mA) to 6V, supports shutdown current as low as 0.1µA, and features thermal hysteresis of 70ppm after −40°C/105°C cycling - critical for repeatable calibration in field-deployed equipment.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage | 3.0V nominal; enables direct interface with 3V ADC references and low-voltage microcontroller analog peripherals. |
| Initial accuracy | ±0.05% max at 25°C; reduces system calibration burden and improves absolute measurement fidelity. |
| Tempco | 12ppm/°C max (−40°C to 105°C); ensures <±120ppm total drift across full industrial range for stable sensor scaling. |
| Quiescent current | 650nA typical active, 0.1µA shutdown; extends battery life to years in wireless sensor nodes and portable medical devices. |
| Low-frequency noise | 3.3ppmP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz, VREF < 2.5V); meets noise floor requirements for 16-bit SAR ADCs without additional filtering. |
| Load regulation | 20ppm/mA sourcing (0–10mA); maintains reference integrity under dynamic sensor excitation or DAC buffer loading. |
| Dropout voltage | 120mV at 5mA; allows operation from 3.12V supply, compatible with single-cell LiFePO4 or regulated 3.3V rails. |
Pinout & Package
REF35300QDBVR uses the 6-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package (2.90mm × 1.60mm body), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining thermal performance (RθJA = 164.4°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 1 & 2) | Ground reference | Internally shorted pins provide low-impedance return path; decoupling capacitors must connect here to minimize noise coupling. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable control input | Logic-high or floating enables output; logic-low disables reference and reduces IQ to 0.1µA - essential for duty-cycled systems. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Input supply | Accepts 3.12V–6V; requires 0.1µF ceramic input capacitor close to pin for PSRR optimization above 10kHz. |
| NR (Pin 5) | Noise reduction node | Connects external capacitor (0.1–10µF) to reduce 0.1Hz–10Hz noise; left floating if not used. |
| VREF (Pin 6) | Precision output | Delivers regulated 3.0V; output capacitor (0.1–10µF, ESR ≤400mΩ) required for stability and transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ (650nA) | Enables multi-year operation from coin cells in IoT edge sensors and portable diagnostics equipment. |
| NR pin with external capacitor | Reduces 0.1Hz–10Hz noise to 3.3ppmP-P, eliminating need for post-regulator RC filters in high-resolution data acquisition. |
| EN pin with sub-µA shutdown | Permits precise power gating in battery-powered instruments, reducing average system current by >99% during idle periods. |
| 12ppm/°C tempco (−40°C to 105°C) | Guarantees reference stability across automotive under-hood and industrial process control ambient ranges without software compensation. |
| 40ppm long-term stability (1k hr) | Minimizes recalibration frequency in field-deployed flow transmitters and power quality analyzers, lowering TCO. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF3430QDBVR | Higher IQ (3.5µA), same 3.0V output and ±0.05% accuracy; no NR pin; 10ppm/°C tempco (−40°C to 125°C). | Better tempco over extended range but lacks noise filtering capability; suited for non-noise-critical industrial controls. | Select REF3430QDBVR only if lower tempco outweighs need for sub-ppm noise suppression in high-resolution measurement. |
| ADR3430ARJZ-R7 | 3.0V output, ±0.1% accuracy, 12ppm/°C tempco, 4.5µA IQ; no EN/NR pins; 5-pin SOT-23 package. | Higher initial error and fixed operation; requires external enable circuitry; less suitable for ultra-low-power or dynamically filtered designs. | Choose ADR3430ARJZ-R7 only when TI supply chain constraints exist and system can tolerate doubled initial error and no power gating. |
Compared with REF35300QDBVR, REF3430QDBVR trades nanopower operation for improved temperature coefficient across −40°C to 125°C, while ADR3430ARJZ-R7 offers broader distributor availability but sacrifices accuracy, IQ, and feature set - making REF35300QDBVR optimal for battery-powered precision instrumentation where noise, power, and stability are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for REF35300QDBVR?
The REF35300QDBVR is fully specified from −40°C to +105°C and remains functional across −55°C to +125°C. This extended range supports deployment in automotive engine compartments, outdoor utility meters, and industrial control cabinets where ambient temperatures exceed standard commercial limits. The 12ppm/°C tempco guarantee applies strictly within the −40°C to +105°C range per datasheet Section 6.5.
How does the NR pin on REF35300QDBVR reduce output noise?
The NR pin on REF35300QDBVR connects to an external capacitor (0.1–10µF) that forms a low-pass filter with internal impedance, suppressing 0.1Hz–10Hz noise to 3.3ppmP-P. When the NR capacitor is omitted, noise increases to 3.8ppmP-P for VREF ≥2.5V. This feature eliminates the need for discrete RC filters in high-resolution data acquisition systems using the REF35300QDBVR.
Can REF35300QDBVR be used with a 3.3V supply rail?
Yes - REF35300QDBVR operates with input voltage from VREF + VDO (3.12V minimum at 5mA) up to 6V, making it fully compatible with standard 3.3V LDO outputs. Its 120mV dropout voltage ensures stable 3.0V regulation even as the 3.3V rail sags to 3.15V under load, provided a 0.1µF input capacitor is placed adjacent to the VIN pin.
What is the long-term stability specification for REF35300QDBVR?
REF35300QDBVR exhibits 40ppm typical long-term stability over 1000 hours at 35°C, measured per JEDEC JESD22-A117. This value reflects real-world PCB mounting conditions without burn-in, and represents the dominant drift period - subsequent drift is typically lower. Stability is verified using calibrated 8.5-digit multimeters in oil-bath temperature control to isolate aging effects from thermal artifacts.
Does REF35300QDBVR require an output capacitor, and what value is recommended?
Yes - REF35300QDBVR requires an output capacitor between VREF and GND for stability and transient response. The datasheet specifies a range of 0.1µF to 10µF with ESR ≤400mΩ. A 1µF X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 2mm of the VREF pin delivers optimal load transient performance (Figure 6-22) and ensures phase margin >60° across temperature and load conditions.
