Texas Instruments LM385 micropower shunt voltage reference diode in SOT-23-3 package. Ideal for portable meters and analogue circuitry.
The Texas Instruments LM385 Series Micropower Voltage Reference Diode offers exceptional performance for precision circuitry, featuring a low temperature coefficient and outstanding temperature stability. Utilising a band-gap voltage regulator design, this diode provides exceptionally low dynamic impedance. On-chip trimming is employed to ensure tight voltage tolerance across the range, while the exclusive use of transistors and resistors guarantees low noise and excellent long-term stability.
Careful design has rendered this device remarkably tolerant of capacitive loading, making it straightforward to integrate into virtually any reference application. Its wide dynamic operating range allows for use with widely varying power supplies whilst maintaining excellent regulation. With its extremely low power drain, the LM385 is highly suitable for micropower circuitry, enabling the design of portable meters, regulators, and general-purpose analogue circuitry where battery life can approach shelf life.
Additionally, this voltage reference is classified as a green product and is manufactured without Antimony (Sb) or Bromine (Br), aligning with modern environmental standards. Available in a compact SOT-23-3 surface mount package, it is ideal for space-constrained designs requiring reliable and precise voltage regulation.
