GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/
ADR4550 devices are high precision, low power, low noise
voltage references featuring ±0.02% B, C, and D grade
maximum initial error, excellent temperature stability, and low
output noise.
This family of voltage references uses an innovative core topology
to achieve high accuracy while offering industry-leading
temperature stability and noise performance. The low, thermally
induced output voltage hysteresis and low long-term output
voltage drift of the devices also improve system accuracy over
time and temperature variations.
A maximum operating current of 950 μA and a maximum low
dropout voltage of 300 mV allow the devices to function very
well in portable equipment.
The ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/
ADR4550 series of references are each provided in an 8-lead
SOIC and are available in a wide range of output voltages, all of
which are specified over the extended industrial temperature
range of −40°C to +125°C.

TERMINOLOGY
Dropout Voltage (VDO)
Dropout voltage, sometimes referred to as supply voltage headroom or supply output voltage differential, is defined as the
minimum voltage differential between the input and output such
that the output voltage is maintained to within 0.1% accuracy.
VDO = (VIN − VOUT)min|IL = constant
Because the dropout voltage depends on the current passing
through the device, it is always specified for a given load current.
In series mode devices, the dropout voltage typically increases
proportionally to the load current (see Figure 7, Figure 22,
Figure 41, Figure 54, Figure 69, and Figure 90).
Line Regulation
Line regulation refers to the change in output voltage in response
to a given change in input voltage and is expressed in percent
per volt, ppm per volt, or μV per volt change in input voltage.
This parameter accounts for the effects of self heating.
Load Regulation
Load regulation refers to the change in output voltage in response
to a given change in load current and is expressed in μV per mA,
ppm per mA, or ohms of dc output resistance. This parameter
accounts for the effects of self heating.
Solder Heat Resistance (SHR) Shift
SHR shift refers to the permanent shift in output voltage that is
induced by exposure to reflow soldering and is expressed as a
percentage of the output voltage. This shift is caused by changes
in the stress exhibited on the die by the package materials when
these materials are exposed to high temperatures. This effect is
more pronounced in lead-free soldering processes due to higher
reflow temperatures. SHR is calculated after three solder reflow
cycles to simulate the worst case conditions when assembling a
two-sided PCB with surface mount components with one additional rework cycle. The reflow cycles use the JEDEC standard
reflow temperature profile.
Temperature Coefficient (TCVOUT)
The temperature coefficient relates the change in the output
voltage to the change in the ambient temperature of the device, as
normalized by the output voltage at 25°C. The TCVOUT for the
ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/ADR4550
A grade and B grade is fully tested over three temperatures:
−40°C, +25°C, and +125°C. The TCVOUT for the C grade and D
grade is fully tested over three temperatures: 0°C, +25°C, and
+70°C. This parameter is specified using two methods. The box
method is the most common method and accounts for the
temperature coefficient over the full temperature range,
whereas the bowtie method calculates the worst case slope from
+25°C and is therefore more useful for systems which are
calibrated at +25°C.
Box Method
The box method is represented by the following equation:
TCVOUT =
max{VOUT (T1 , T2 , T3 )} − min{VOUT (T1 , T2 , T3 )}
VOUT (T2 ) × (T3 − T1 )
× 10 6
where:
TCVOUT is expressed in ppm/°C.
VOUT(TX) is the output voltage at Temperature TX.
T1 = −40°C.
T2 = +25°C.
T3 = +125°C.
This box method ensures that TCVOUT accurately portrays the
maximum difference between any of the three temperatures at
which the output voltage of the device is measured.
Bowtie Method
The bowtie method is represented by the following equation:
TCVOUT = |max{TCVOUT1, TCVOUT2}|
where:
TCVOUT 1 =
max{VOUT (T1 , T2 )} − min{VOUT (T1 , T2 )}
× 10 6
VOUT (T2 ) × (T2 − T1 )
TCVOUT 2 =
max{VOUT (T2 , T3 )} − min{VOUT (T2 , T3 )}
× 10 6
VOUT (T2 ) × (T3 − T2 )
TCVOUT is expressed in ppm/°C.
VOUT(TX) is the output voltage at Temperature TX.
T1 = 0°C.
T2 = +25°C.
T3 = +70°C.
Thermally Induced Output Voltage Hysteresis (ΔVOUT_HYS)
Thermally induced output voltage hysteresis represents the
change in the output voltage after the device is exposed to a
specified temperature cycle. This is expressed as a difference in
ppm from the nominal output.
∆
=
VOUT _ HYS
VOUT1_25°C − VOUT2_25°C
× 106[ppm]
VOUT_25°C
where:
VOUT1_25°C is the output voltage at 25°C.
VOUT2_25°C is the output voltage after temperature cycling.
Long-Term Stability (ΔVOUT_LTD)
Long-term stability refers to the shift in the output voltage versus
time. This is expressed as a difference in ppm from the nominal
output.
∆VOUT _ LTD =
VOUT (t 1 ) − VOUT (t 0 )
VOUT (t 0 )
× 10 6 [ppm]
where:
VOUT(t0) is the VOUT at the starting time of the measurement.
VOUT(t1) is the VOUT at the end time of the measurement.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BASIC VOLTAGE REFERENCE CONNECTION
POWER DISSIPATION
The circuit shown in Figure 107 shows the basic configuration
for the ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/
ADR4550 family of voltage references.
The ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/
ADR4550 voltage references are capable of sourcing and sinking
up to 10 mA of load current at room temperature across the
rated input voltage range. However, when used in applications
subject to high ambient temperatures, the input voltage and
load current must be monitored carefully to ensure that the
device does not exceeded its maximum power dissipation rating.
The maximum power dissipation of the device can be calculated
using the following equation:

Simplified Schematic
INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITORS
Input Capacitors
A 1 μF to 10 μF electrolytic or ceramic capacitor can be connected
to the input to improve transient response in applications
where the supply voltage may fluctuate. It is recommended to
connect an additional 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor in parallel to
reduce supply noise.
Output Capacitors
θ JA
where:
PD is the device power dissipation.
TJ is the device junction temperature.
TA is the ambient temperature.
θJA is the package (junction to air) thermal resistance.
This relationship can cause acceptable load current in high
temperature conditions to be less than the maximum current
sourcing capability of the device. Do not operate the device
outside of its maximum power rating, because doing so can
result in premature failure or permanent damage to the device.
SAMPLE APPLICATIONS
Bipolar Output Reference
An output capacitor is required for stability and to filter out
low level voltage noise. The minimum value of the output
capacitor (COUT) is shown in Table 13.

An additional 1 μF to 10 μF electrolytic or ceramic capacitor can be
added in parallel to improve transient performance in response
to sudden changes in load current; however, doing so increases the
turn-on time of the device.
Figure 108 shows a bipolar reference configuration. By connecting
the output of the ADR4550 to the inverting terminal of an
operational amplifier, it is possible to obtain both positive and
negative reference voltages. R1 and R2 must be matched as closely
as possible to ensure minimal difference between the negative
and positive outputs. Resistors with low temperature
coefficients must also be used if the circuit is deployed in
environments with large temperature swings; otherwise, a voltage
difference develops between the two outputs as the ambient
temperature changes.

LOCATION OF REFERENCE IN SYSTEM

It is recommended to place the ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/
ADR4533/ADR4540/ADR4550 reference as close to the load as
possible to minimize the length of the output traces and, therefore,
the error introduced by the voltage drop. Current flowing through
a PCB trace produces a voltage drop; with longer traces, this
drop can reach several millivolts or more, introducing considerable
error into the output voltage of the reference. A 1-inch long, 5 mm
wide trace of 1-ounce copper has a resistance of approximately
100 mΩ at room temperature; at a load current of 10 mA, this
resistance can introduce a full millivolt of error.

3500 hours account for the remaining 50% of the drift. Thus, the
early life drift is the dominant contributor, whereas the drift
after 1000 hours is significantly lower.
Figure 109 shows a configuration for obtaining higher current
drive capability from the ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/
ADR4533/ADR4540/ADR4550 references without sacrificing
accuracy. The op amp regulates the current flow through the
metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET)
until VOUT equals the output voltage of the reference; current is
then drawn directly from VIN instead of from the reference
itself, allowing increased current drive capability.

Because the current sourcing capability of this circuit depends only
on the current rating of the MOSFET, the output drive
capability can be adjusted to the application simply by choosing
an appropriate MOSFET. In all cases, tie the VOUT pin directly to
the load device to maintain maximum output voltage accuracy.

The stability of a precision signal path over its lifetime or between
calibration procedures is dependent on the long-term stability
of the analog components in the path, such as op amps, references,
and data converters. To help system designers predict the longterm drift of circuits that use the ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/
ADR4533/ADR4540/ADR4550, Analog Devices measured the
output voltage of multiple units for more than 4500 hours (more
than 6 months) using a high precision measurement system,
including an ultrastable oil bath. To replicate real-world system
performance, the devices under test (DUTs) were soldered onto
an FR4 PCB using a standard reflow profile (as defined in the
JEDEC J-STD-020D standard), rather than testing them in
sockets. This manner of testing is important because expansion
and contraction of the PCB can apply stress to the integrated
circuit (IC) package and contribute to shifts in the offset voltage.

In the three full cycles, the output hysteresis is typically −13 ppm.
The histogram in Figure 114 shows that the hysteresis is larger
when the device is cycled through only a half cycle, from room
temperature to 125°C and back to room temperature, typically
−97 ppm.

In addition to stability over time, as described in the LongTerm Drift section, it is useful to know the thermal hysteresis,
that is, the stability vs. cycling of temperature. Thermal
hysteresis is an important parameter because it tells the system
designer how closely the signal returns to its starting amplitude
after the ambient temperature changes and the subsequent
return to room temperature. Figure 113 shows the change in
output voltage as the temperature cycles three times from room
temperature to +125°C to −40°C and back to room temperature.
Figure 115 shows the change in input offset voltage as the
temperature cycles three times from room temperature to
+70°C to 0°C and back to room temperature. In the three full
cycles, the output hysteresis is typically −8 ppm. The histogram
in Figure 116 shows that the hysteresis is larger when the device
is cycled through only a half cycle, from room temperature to
+70°C and back to room temperature, typically −17 ppm.

Measuring thermal hysteresis over the full operating temperature
range is not reflective of a typical operating environment in
most applications. Instead, smaller temperature variations are
more normal. The ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/
ADR4540/ADR4550 were tested over 20 different temperature
cycles of increasing magnitude, centered at +25°C, starting with
+25°C ± 5°C and going up to the full operating temperature
range of −40°C to +125°C. The results are shown in Figure 119.
For a temperature delta of 100°C (that is, +25°C ± 50°C) the
thermal hysteresis is less than 20 ppm for both the full cycle
and the half cycle. Above this range, the thermal hysteresis
increases significantly. These results show that the standard
specification, which covers the full operating temperature
range, is close to the worst case performance.
The ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/
ADR4550 is packaged in a SOIC plastic package and has a
moisture sensitivity level of MSL-1, per the JEDEC standard.
However, moisture absorption from the air into the package
changes the internal mechanical stresses on the die causing
shifts in the output voltage. Figure 120 shows the effects of a
step change in relative humidity on the output voltage over
time.
The humidity chamber is maintained at an ambient temperature
of +25°C, while the relative humidity undergoes a step change
from 20% to 80% at time zero. The relative humidity is
maintained at 80% for the duration of the testing. Note that the
output voltage shifts quickly compared to the overall settling
time, following the step change in relative humidity.
Figure 121 shows the effects of 10% increases in relative humidity
from 30% to 70% and back to 30%. Note that after the relative
humidity returns to 30%, the output voltage is settling back to
its starting point.

By power cycling large numbers of samples, the power cycle
hysteresis can be determined. To keep this measurement
independent of other variables and environmental effects, the
power cycle testing was performed using a high precision
measurement system, including an ultrastable oil bath.
Figure 122 shows the power cycle hysteresis. The units were
powered down for approximately four hours and then powered
up. The ADR4520/ADR4525/ADR4530/ADR4533/ADR4540/
ADR4550 do not have any power cycle hysteresis even after a
long power-down period, making these devices very suitable for
equipment which must maintain its calibration accuracy
between power cycles.
