Product details
Overview
TS822AIZ from STMicroelectronics is a 2.5V, ±1% precision micropower shunt voltage reference in SOT23-3 package, operating from -40°C to +85°C with 40µA typical supply current and 100ppm/°C max temperature coefficient. It delivers stable reference voltage for low-power analog signal conditioning in battery-operated instrumentation and SMPS feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the TS822AIZ datasheet, TS822AIZ pinout, TS822AIZ application, or TS822AIZ equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low operating current (40µA typ.), tight initial tolerance (±1%), capacitive-load stability, and industrial temperature performance - all verified per STMicroelectronics' August 2007 Rev 2 specification.
Technical Context
The TS822AIZ functions as a two-terminal shunt reference, sinking cathode current to regulate voltage across its anode–cathode terminals. Its operation requires external series resistor to set operating current between 50µA (min) and 15mA (max), with reverse breakdown voltage tightly controlled at 2.475V to 2.525V at 25°C.
It exhibits low dynamic impedance (0.2Ω to 0.7Ω over 1–15mA), wideband noise of 35nV/√Hz (10Hz–10kHz), and long-term stability of 120ppm after 1000 hours - enabling high-accuracy, low-drift references in space-constrained, power-sensitive designs without requiring op-amp buffering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.50V nominal, ±1% initial accuracy at 25°C - ensures precise ADC/DAC biasing without trimming. |
| Operating Current | 40µA typical, 50µA min - enables operation from microamp-level bias sources in energy-harvesting systems. |
| Temp Coefficient | ≤100ppm/°C - limits drift to ±0.85mV over full -40°C to +85°C range for stable sensor excitation. |
| Static Impedance | 0.2Ω to 0.7Ω (1–15mA) - minimizes load-induced voltage error in varying-current applications like SMPS feedback. |
| Noise Density | 35nV/√Hz (10Hz–10kHz) - supports high-resolution measurement circuits without added filtering overhead. |
| Long-Term Stability | 120ppm @ 1000hrs - reduces calibration frequency in field-deployed test equipment. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3L plastic micropackage (3.04mm × 2.64mm × 1.02mm), lead-free ECOPACK® compliant, rated for 260°C soldering (10s).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Reference ground return path | Connected to system GND; carries full cathode current; must be low-impedance for stability. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Regulated output node | Provides 2.5V reference; connects to feedback divider or load; requires external series resistor. |
| No Connect (Pin 3) | Unused terminal | Internally unconnected; left floating per STMicroelectronics mechanical drawing; no electrical function. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Capacitive-load stability | Validated with CL = 0 to 10µF - eliminates need for isolation resistor in LDO/SMPS feedback networks. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 40µA typical - extends battery life in portable multimeters and wireless sensor nodes beyond 10 years. |
| Industrial temperature range | -40°C to +85°C operation - supports deployment in outdoor industrial controllers without derating. |
| Low dynamic impedance | 0.2Ω at 1mA - maintains <1mV regulation error under 200µA load transients in data acquisition front-ends. |
Applications
| Battery-Powered Multimeter | Isolated SMPS Feedback |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431ACDBVR | 2.495V nominal, ±0.5% initial tolerance, 92ppm/°C TC, 1mA min operating current | Requires higher minimum current; better accuracy but less suitable for sub-100µA systems | Select when tighter initial tolerance outweighs current budget constraints |
| MAX6008AEUR+T | 2.500V nominal, ±0.2% initial tolerance, 75ppm/°C TC, 35µA typical current | Lower noise (20nV/√Hz), but only rated to +70°C and lacks capacitive-load stability data | Select for lab-grade instrumentation where extended temperature range is not required |
Compared with TL431ACDBVR and MAX6008AEUR+T, the TS822AIZ uniquely balances ultra-low current (40µA), industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), and proven capacitive-load stability - making it optimal for battery-powered field instruments where size, longevity, and environmental robustness are prioritized over sub-0.5% initial accuracy.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating current for TS822AIZ at -40°C?
The minimum operating current is 60µA across the full industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), as specified in Table 4 of the STMicroelectronics datasheet. At 25°C, the typical minimum is 50µA, but design must accommodate the 60µA worst-case value to ensure regulation at cold extremes.
Can TS822AIZ drive a 10µF capacitor directly without oscillation?
Yes - STMicroelectronics explicitly validates stability with up to 10µF capacitive load in Figure 6 and the "High stability when used with capacitive loads" feature bullet. No series isolation resistor is required, unlike many shunt references that demand RC damping networks.
Is TS822AIZ RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes - the TS822AIZ uses STMicroelectronics' ECOPACK® packaging, which features lead-free second-level interconnects and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, as confirmed in the "Package information" section (page 6) of the official datasheet.
How does the 100ppm/°C temperature coefficient translate to voltage drift over temperature?
Over the -40°C to +85°C range (125°C span), the maximum drift is 125°C × 100ppm/°C = 12,500ppm = 1.25% of 2.5V = ±31.25mV. Combined with ±25mV initial tolerance (±1%), total worst-case deviation is ±56.25mV (±2.25%) - verified in Figure 4's ±1% band.
