In analog and mixed-signal circuits, the voltage reference acts as the standard against which other signals are measured. Inaccuracy and variation in the voltage reference directly impact the accuracy ...

Many embedded systems require a stable, low-noise DC reference. This reference can be a stable current or voltage source. These references are used in many ways. Some typical uses are listed as ...

The voltage reference sets the limit to the input analog signal that the ADC can resolve. Equation 1 is the ideal transfer function of an ADC where the output code—in decimal form—is computed by the ...

Temperature coefficient (tempco) is the specification that defines how a voltage reference’s output voltage will drift over a given temperature. The first plot shows data for the MAX6033 and the ...

What are the key specs for a bandgap reference? Details regarding the error amplifier. The architecture of a conventional bandgap reference. The ingredients for a ...
