THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADR44x series of references uses a new reference generation POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS
technique known as XFET (eXtra implanted junction FET). The ADR44x family of references is guaranteed to deliver load
This technique yields a reference with low dropout, good currents to 10 mA with an input voltage that ranges from 3 V to
thermal hysteresis, and exceptionally low noise. The core of the 18 V. When these devices are used in applications at higher

and used to form a highly stable voltage reference. where:

NOISE PERFORMANCE
The noise generated by the ADR44x family of references is
typically less than 1.4 V p-p over the 0.1 Hz to 10.0 Hz band
for ADR440, ADR441, and ADR443. Figure 26 shows the 0.1 Hz
to 10 Hz noise of the ADR441, which is only 1.2 V p-p. The
noise measurement is made with a band-pass filter composed of
VIN
a 2pole high-pass filter with a corner frequency at 0.1 Hz and a
2pole low-pass filter with a corner frequency at 10.0 Hz.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

OUTPUT ADJUSTMENT
The ADR44x family features a TRIM pin that allows the user to 2
adjust the output voltage of the part over a limited range. This VIN
allows errors from the reference and overall system errors to be ADR440/
trimmed out by connecting a potentiometer between the output ADR441/
ADR443/
and the ground, with the wiper connected to the TRIM pin. ADR444/

coarse trim. The second potentiometer, with its wiper connected
to the trim terminal of the ADR44x, is used for fine adjustment.
Resolution depends on the end-to-end resistance value and the
resolution of the selected potentiometer.
+VDD

By connecting the output of the ADR44x to the inverting ter-

2
minal of an operational amplifier, it is possible to obtain both VIN
positive and negative reference voltages. Care must be taken ADR440/
when choosing Resistors R1 and R2 (see Figure 36). These ADR441/
ADR443/ ADJ VREF
resistors must be matched as closely as possible to ensure mini- ADR444/
mal differences between the negative and positive outputs. In ADR445

temperature. Use low temperature coefficient resistors if the 4

between the two outputs.
Figure 37. Programmable Voltage Source

For a completely programmable solution, replace the two

potentiometers in Figure 37 with one Analog Devices dual
digital potentiometer, offered with either an SPI or an I2C
interface. These interfaces set the position of the wiper on both
potentiometers and allow the output voltage to be set. Table 9
lists compatible Analog Devices digital potentiometers.

operational amplifier regulates the MOSFET turn-on, forcing
VO to equal the VREF. Current is then drawn from VIN, allowing
increased current drive capability. The circuit allows a 50 mA

For fast transient response, add a buffer at VO to aid with
capacitive loading.
