Precision SOT-23 FGA™ Voltage References
The X60003 FGA™ voltage references is a very high precision
analog voltage reference fabricated in Intersil’s proprietary
Floating Gate Analog technology, which achieves superior
levels of performance when compared to conventional band
gap, buried zener, or XFET™ technologies.
Features
FGA™ voltage references feature very high initial accuracy,
very low temperature coefficient, excellent long term stability,
low noise and excellent line and load regulation, at the lowest
power consumption currently available. These voltage
references enable advanced applications for precision
industrial and portable systems operating at significantly
higher accuracy and lower power levels than can be achieved
with conventional technologies.

CAUTION: Do not operate at or near the maximum ratings listed for extended periods of time. Exposure to such conditions may adversely impact product
reliability and result in failures not covered by warranty.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All parameters having Min/Max specifications are guaranteed. Typ values are for information purposes only. Unless otherwise noted,
all tests are at the specified temperature and are pulsed tests, therefore: TJ = TC = TA
NOTES:
5. Measured with no filtering, distance of 10” from source, intensity set to 55kV and 70mA current, 30s duration. Other exposure levels should be
analyzed for Output Voltage drift effects. See “Applications Information” on page 12.
6. JA is measured with the component mounted on a high effective thermal conductivity test board in free air. See Tech Brief TB379 for details.
7. For JC, the “case temp” location is taken at the package top center.
8. Post-reflow drift for the X60003 devices will range from 100µV to 1.0mV based on experimental results with devices on FR4 double sided boards.
The design engineer must take this into account when considering the reference voltage after assembly.
Electrical Specifications Operating Conditions: IOUT = 0mA, COUT = 0.001µF, TA = -40 to +85°C. Boldface limits apply over

NOTES:
9. Over the specified temperature range. Temperature coefficient is measured by the box method whereby the change in VOUT is divided by the
temperature range; in this case, -40°C to +85°C = +125°C.
10. Thermal Hysteresis is the change of VOUT measured at TA = +25°C after temperature cycling over a specified range, TA. VOUT is read initially at
TA = +25°C for the device under test. The device is temperature cycled and a second VOUT measurement is taken at +25°C. The difference between
the initial VOUT reading and the second VOUT reading is then expressed in ppm. For TA = +125°C, the device under test is cycled from +25°C to
+85°C to -40°C to +85°C.
11. Long term drift is logarithmic in nature and diminishes over time. Drift after the first 1000 hours will be approximately 10ppm/sqrt(1kHrs).
12. Parameters with MIN and/or MAX limits are 100% tested at +25°C, unless otherwise specified. Temperature limits established by characterization
and are not production tested.

Applications Information
FGA Technology
The X60003 voltage references use the floating gate technology to
create references with very low drift and supply current. Essentially
the charge stored on a floating gate cell is set precisely in
manufacturing. The reference voltage output itself is a buffered
version of the floating gate voltage. The resulting reference device
has excellent characteristics which are unique in the industry: very
low temperature drift, high initial accuracy, and almost zero supply
current. Also, the reference voltage itself is not limited by voltage
bandgaps or zener settings, so a wide range of reference voltages
can be programmed (standard voltage settings are provided, but
customer-specific voltages are available).
The process used for these reference devices is a floating gate
CMOS process, and the amplifier circuitry uses CMOS transistors
for amplifier and output transistor circuitry. While providing
excellent accuracy, there are limitations in output noise level and
load regulation due to the MOS device characteristics. These
limitations are addressed with circuit techniques discussed in
other sections.
Handling and Board Mounting
FGA references provide excellent initial accuracy and low
temperature drift at the expense of very little power drain. There
are some precautions to take to insure this accuracy is not
compromised. Excessive heat during solder reflow can cause
excessive initial accuracy drift, so the recommended +260°C
max temperature profile should not be exceeded. Expect up to
1mV drift from the solder reflow process.
FGA references are susceptible to excessive X-radiation like that
used in PC board manufacturing. Initial accuracy can change
10mV or more under extreme radiation. If an assembled board
needs to be X-rayed, care should be taken to shield the FGA
reference device.
Nanopower Operation
Reference devices achieve their highest accuracy when powered
up continuously, and after initial stabilization has taken place.
The X60003 is the first high precision voltage reference with ultra
low power consumption that makes it practical to leave power-on
continuously in battery operated circuits. The X60003 consume
extremely low supply current due to the proprietary FGA
technology. Supply current at room temperature is typically
500nA which is 1 to 2 orders of magnitude lower than
competitive devices. Application circuits using battery power will
benefit greatly from having an accurate, stable reference which
essentially presents no load to the battery.
capacity. Absolute accuracy will suffer as the device is biased
and requires time to settle to its final value, or, may not actually
settle to a final value as power-on time may be short.

Board Mounting Considerations
For applications requiring the highest accuracy, board mounting
location should be reviewed. Placing the device in areas subject
to slight twisting can cause degradation of the accuracy of the
reference voltage due to die stresses. It is normally best to place
the device near the edge of a board, or the shortest side, as the
axis of bending is most limited at that location. Obviously
mounting the device on flexprint or extremely thin PC material
will likewise cause loss of reference accuracy.
Board Assembly Considerations
FGA references provide high accuracy and low temperature drift
but some PC board assembly precautions are necessary. Normal
Output voltage shifts of 100µV to 1mV can be expected with
Pb-free reflow profiles or wave solder on multi-layer FR4 PC
boards. Precautions should be taken to avoid excessive heat or
extended exposure to high reflow or wave solder temperatures,
this may reduce device initial accuracy.
Post-assembly x-ray inspection may also lead to permanent
changes in device output voltage and should be minimized or
avoided. If x-ray inspection is required, it is advisable to monitor
the reference output voltage to verify excessive shift has not
occurred. If large amounts of shift are observed, it is best to add
an X-ray shield consisting of thin zinc (300µm) sheeting to allow
clear imaging, yet block x-ray energy that affects the FGA
reference.
In particular, battery-powered data converter circuits that would
normally require the entire circuit to be disabled when not in use
can remain powered-up between conversions as shown in Figure
33. Data acquisition circuits providing 12 to 24-bits of accuracy
can operate with the reference device continuously biased with
no power penalty, providing the highest accuracy and lowest
possible long term drift.
Other reference devices consuming higher supply currents will
need to be disabled in between conversions to conserve battery

Special Applications Considerations
If a device is expected to pass through luggage X-ray machines
numerous times, it is advised to mount a 2-layer (minimum) PC
board on the top, and along with a ground plane underneath will
effectively shield it from 50 to 100 passes through the machine.
Since these machines vary in X-ray dose delivered, it is difficult to
produce an accurate maximum pass recommendation.
Noise Performance and Reduction
The output noise voltage in a 0.1Hz to 10Hz bandwidth is typically
30µVP-P. This is shown in the plot in the “Typical Performance Curves”
on page 8 and 9. The noise measurement is made with a bandpass
filter made of a 1-pole high-pass filter with a corner frequency at 0.1Hz
and a 2-pole low-pass filter with a corner frequency at 12.6Hz to
create a filter with a 9.9Hz bandwidth. Noise in the 10kHz to 1MHz
bandwidth is approximately 400µVP-P with no capacitance on the
output, as shown in Figure 34. These noise measurements are made
with a 2 decade bandpass filter made of a 1-pole high-pass filter with
a corner frequency at 1/10 of the center frequency and
1-pole low-pass filter with a corner frequency at 10x the center
frequency. Figure 34 also shows the noise in the 10kHz to 1MHz band
can be reduced to about 50µVP-P using a 0.001µF capacitor on the
output. Noise in the 1kHz to 100kHz band can be further reduced
using a 0.1µF capacitor on the output, but noise in the 1Hz to 100Hz
band increases due to instability of the very low power amplifier with a
0.1µF capacitance load. For load capacitances above 0.001µF, the
noise reduction network shown in Figure 35 is recommended. This
network reduces noise significantly over the full bandwidth. Figure 35
shows that noise is reduced to less than 40µVP-P from 1Hz to 1MHz
using this network with a 0.01µF capacitor and a 2k resistor in
series with a 10µF capacitor.

NOISE VOLTAGE (µVP-P)
In addition to post-assembly examination, there are also other Xray sources that may affect the FGA reference long term
accuracy. Airport screening machines contain X-rays and will
have a cumulative effect on the voltage reference output
accuracy. Carry-on luggage screening uses low level X-rays and is
not a major source of output voltage shift, although if a product
is expected to pass through that type of screening over 100 times
it may need to consider shielding with copper or aluminum.
Checked luggage X-rays are higher intensity and can cause
output voltage shift in much fewer passes, so devices expected to
go through those machines should definitely consider shielding.
Note that just two layers of 1/2 ounce copper planes will reduce
the received dose by over 90%. The leadframe for the device
which is on the bottom also provides similar shielding.

Turn-On Time
The X60003 device has ultra-low supply current and thus the
time to bias-up internal circuitry to final values will be longer than
with higher power references. Normal turn-on time is typically
7ms. This is shown in the graph, Figure 32. Since devices can
vary in supply current down to 300nA, turn-on time can last up to
about 12ms. Care should be taken in system design to include
this delay before measurements or conversions are started.
Temperature Coefficient
The limits stated for temperature coefficient (tempco) are governed
by the method of measurement. The overwhelming standard for
specifying the temperature drift of a reference is to measure the
reference voltage at two temperatures, take the total variation
(VHIGH- VLOW), and divide by the temperature extremes of
measurement (THIGH - TLOW). The result is divided by the nominal
reference voltage (at T = +25°C) and multiplied by 106 to yield
ppm/°C. This is the “Box” method for determining temperature
coefficient.
