Linear Technology Intros LT1389 Nanopower Precision Shunt Voltage Reference

February 07, 1999 by Jeff Shepard

Linear Technology Corp. (Milpitas, CA) introduced the LT1389 nanopower precision shunt voltage reference. The bandgap reference uses trimmed precision thin-film resistors to achieve 0.05 percent initial voltage accuracy.

The device features guaranteed 800nA operation and low temperature cycling hysteresis. Applications include portable meters, precision regulators, a/d and d/a converters and calibrators. The LT1389 is offered in an 8-lead SO package and comes in 1.25V or 2.5V output voltage version, each available in A and B grades.

In 1000-piece quantities, pricing begins at $3.10.
