MAX6125/MAX6141/
MAX6145/MAX6150/MAX6160
SOT23, Low-Cost, Low-Dropout,
3-Terminal Voltage References
General Description
The MAX6125/MAX6141/MAX6145/MAX6150/MAX6160
low-dropout, micropower, three-terminal voltage references
offer 2.5V, 4.096V, 4.5V, 5.0V, and adjustable (1.23V to
12.4V) output voltages, respectively. Low, 200mV dropout
makes these devices ideal for 3V and 5V systems. Unlike
two-terminal references that waste battery current and
require an external resistor, the MAX61xx family’s supply
current is virtually independent of input voltage variations,
which translates to longer battery life.
Initial accuracy for these devices is ±1%. The output temperature coefficient is typically 15ppm/°C, and guaranteed
to be less than 50ppm/°C (except for the MAX6160). The
MAX6125/MAX6141/MAX6145/MAX6150 are available in
3-pin SOT23 and 8-pin SO packages. The MAX6160 is
available in 4-pin SOT143 and 8-pin SO packages.

Applications Information
Setting the MAX6160 Output Voltage
Set the output voltage on the MAX6160 by connecting a
resistor divider between OUT, ADJ, and GND (Figure 1).
Choose R1 according to the following equation:
R1 = (1.06 x 105) (VOUT / VADJ) Ω
where VTH = 1.23V. The scaling factor (1.06 x 105)
compensates for the MAX6160’s change in ADJ input
current over temperature. When R1 is chosen correctly,
the change in voltage across R1 caused by the ADJ input
current is properly cancelled. Choose R1 to within
www.maximintegrated.com

≈ 208kΩ
2.5V
−
1
1.23V
which is also the nearest 0.1% resistor value.
Choose R2 according to the following equation:
R2 = R1 / (VOUT / VADJ - 1)
For example, a 2.5V output requires R1 = (1.06 x 105)
(2.5V / 1.23V) ≈ 215kΩ, which is the nearest standardvalue 0.1% resistor.
Input Bypassing
For the best line-transient performance, decouple the
input with a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor, as shown in the
Typical Operating Circuit. Locate the capacitor as close to
the device pin as possible. Where transient performance
is less important, no capacitor is necessary.
Output Bypassing
The MAX6125/MAX6141/MAX6145/MAX6150/MAX6160
do not require an output capacitor. They are stable for
capacitive loads from 0nF to 10nF. If your application
requires an output charge reservoir (e.g., to decouple
the reference from a DAC’s input), then make sure that
the total output capacitive load does not exceed 10nF for
optimum settling-time performance.
