Key Featrues

High Initial Accuracy (±2 mV Max): The REF191GSZ offers exceptional initial accuracy, ensuring precise voltage references critical for applications requiring stable and reliable voltage levels, such as precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs). This feature minimizes calibration requirements and enhances overall system performance.
Low Temperature Coefficient (5 ppm/°C Max): With a low temperature coefficient, this voltage reference maintains stable output voltage across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). This is particularly beneficial for industrial and automotive applications where temperature fluctuations are common, ensuring consistent performance under varying environmental conditions.
Low Supply Current (45 µA Max): The device consumes minimal power, making it ideal for battery-powered and energy-efficient applications. This low supply current extends battery life in portable devices and reduces power consumption in power-sensitive systems.
High Output Current (30 mA): Capable of delivering up to 30 mA of output current, the REF191GSZ can directly drive loads without requiring additional buffering. This feature simplifies circuit design and reduces component count, making it suitable for applications like sensor interfaces and power management systems.
Short-Circuit Protection: The built-in short-circuit protection ensures the device remains operational and undamaged in the event of an output short circuit. This enhances reliability and safety in critical applications, reducing the risk of system failure due to accidental short circuits.
