ADR42x Products GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADR42x series are ultraprecision second-generation XFET voltage references featuring low noise, high accuracy, and excellent long-term stability in a SOIC and Mini_SOIC footprints. Patented temperature drift curvature correction technique and XFET (eXtra implanted junction FET) technology minimize nonlinearity of the voltage change with temperature. The XFET architecture offers superior accuracy and thermal hysteresis to the bandgap references. It also operates at lower power and lower supply headroom than the Buried Zener references.

Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the AD42x features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality. -4- WARNING! ESD SENSITIVE DEVICE REV. B ADR420/ADR421/ADR423/ADR425 PARAMETER DEFINITIONS Temperature Coefficient The change of output voltage over the operating temperature range and normalized by the output voltage at 25C, expressed in ppm/C. The equation follows: TCVO ( ppm / C ) = Thermal Hysteresis Thermal hysteresis is defined as the change of output voltage after the device is cycled through temperature from +25C to -40C to +125C and back to +25C. This is a typical value from a sample of parts put through such a cycle. VO _ HYS = VO (25C ) - VO _ TC VO (T2 ) - VO (T1 ) x 106 VO (25C ) x (T2 - T1 ) VO _ HYS ( ppm ) = where VO (25C) = VO at 25C VO (T2) = VO at Temperature 2. Line Regulation The change in output voltage due to a specified change in input voltage. It includes the effects of self-heating. Line regulation is expressed in either percent per volt, parts-per-million per volt, or microvolts per volt change in input voltage Load Regulation The change in output voltage due to a specified change in load current. It includes the effects of self-heating. Load regulation is expressed in either microvolts per milliampere, parts-per-million per milliampere, or ohms of dc output resistance. Long-Term Stability Typical shift of output voltage at 25C on a sample of parts subjected to operation life test of 1000 hours at 125C: VO = VO (t0 ) - VO (t1 ) x 106 VO (t0 ) - VO (t1 ) x 10 6 VO (t0 ) VO (25C) = VO at 25C VO_TC = VO at 25C after temperature cycle at +25C to -40C to +125C and back to +25C. Input Capacitor Input capacitors are not required on the ADR42x. There is no limit for the value of the capacitor used on the input, but a 1 F to 10 F capacitor on the input will improve transient response in applications where the supply suddenly changes. An additional 0.1 F in parallel will also help to reduce noise from the supply. Output Capacitor The ADR42x does not need output capacitors for stability under any load condition. An output capacitor, typically 0.1 F, will filter out any low-level noise voltage and will not affect the operation of the part. On the other hand, the load transient response can be improved with an additional 1 F to 10 F output capacitor in parallel. A capacitor here will act as a source of stored energy for sudden increase in load current. The only parameter that will degrade, by adding an output capacitor, is turn-on time and it depends on the size of the capacitor chosen. where VO (t0) = VO at 25C at Time 0 VO (t1) = VO at 25C after 1,000 hours operation at 125C.

This technique yields a reference with low supply current, good thermal hysteresis, and exceptionally low noise. The core of the XFET reference consists of two junction field-effect transistors (JFET), one of which has an extra channel implant to raise its pinch-off voltage. By running the two JFETs at the same drain current, the difference in pinch-off voltage can be amplified and used to form a highly stable voltage reference. Voltage references, in general, require a bypass capacitor connected from V OUT to GND. The circuit in Figure 2 illustrates the basic configuration for the ADR42x family of references. Other than a 0.1 F capacitor at the output to help improve noise suppression, a large output capacitor at the output is not required for circuit stability. The intrinsic reference voltage is around 0.5 V with a negative temperature coefficient of about -120 ppm/C. This slope is essentially constant to the dielectric constant of silicon and can be closely compensated by adding a correction term generated in the same fashion as the proportional-to-temperature (PTAT) term used to compensate bandgap references. The big advantage over a bandgap reference is that the intrinsic temperature coefficient is some thirty times lower (therefore requiring less correction), resulting in much lower noise since most of the noise of a bandgap reference comes from the temperature compensation circuitry.

Basic Voltage Reference Configuration Noise Performance The noise generated by the ADR42x family of references is typically less than 2 V p-p over the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band for ADR420, ADR421, and ADR423. TPC 22 shows the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz noise of the ADR421, which is only 1.75 V p-p. The noise measurement is made with a bandpass filter made of a 2-pole high-pass filter with a corner frequency at 0.1 Hz and a 2-pole low-pass filter with a corner frequency at 10 Hz. The ADR42x trim terminal can be used to adjust the output voltage over a 0.5% range. This feature allows the system designer to trim system errors out by setting the reference to a voltage other than the nominal. This is also helpful if the part is used in a system at temperature to trim out any error. Adjustment of the output has negligible effect on the temperature performance of the device. To avoid degrading temperature coefficient, both the trimming potentiometer and the two resistors need to be low temperature coefficient types, preferably <100 ppm/C. VOUT VP + 8 APPLICATIONS SECTION OUTPUT ADJUSTMENT ADR42x IPTAT 10F ADR42x Upon application of power (cold start), the time required for the output voltage to reach its final value within a specified error band is defined as the turn-on settling time. Two components normally associated with this are the time for the active circuits to settle, and the time for the thermal gradients on the chip to stabilize. TPC 29 through TPC 33, inclusive, show the turn-on settling time for the ADR421. where G is the gain of the reciprocal of the divider ratio, VP is the difference in pinch-off voltage between the two JFETs, and IPTAT is the positive temperature coefficient correction current. ADR42x are created by on-chip adjustment of R2 and R3 to achieve 2.048 V or 2.500 V at the reference output respectively.

Simplified Schematic Device Power Dissipation Considerations The ADR42x family of references is guaranteed to deliver load currents to 10 mA with an input voltage that ranges from 4.5 V to 18 V.

B ADR420/ADR421/ADR423/ADR425 +VDD Reference for Converters in Optical Network Control Circuits In the upcoming high-capacity, all-optical router network, Figure 4 employs arrays of micromirrors to direct and route optical signals from fiber to fiber, without first converting them to electrical form, which reduces the communication speed. The tiny micromechanical mirrors are positioned so that each is illuminated by a single wavelength that carries unique information and can be passed to any desired input and output fiber. The mirrors are tilted by the dual-axis actuators controlled by precision ADCs and DACs within the system. Due to the microscopic movement of the mirrors, not only is the precision of the converters important, but the noise associated with these controlling converters is also extremely critical, because total noise within the system can be multiplied by the numbers of converters employed. As a result, the ADR42x is necessary for this application for its exceptional low noise to maintain the stability of the control loop.

All-Optical Router Network Figure 6. High-Voltage Floating Current Source A Negative Precision Reference without Precision Resistors Kelvin Connections In many current-output CMOS DAC applications, where the output signal voltage must be of the same polarity as the reference voltage, it is often required to reconfigure a current-switching DAC into a voltage-switching DAC through the use of a 1.25 V reference, an op amp, and a pair of resistors. Using a currentswitching DAC directly requires the need for an additional operational amplifier at the output to reinvert the signal. A negative voltage reference is then desirable from the point that an additional operational amplifier is not required for either reinversion (current-switching mode) or amplification (voltageswitching mode) of the DAC output voltage. In general, any positive voltage reference can be converted into a negative voltage reference through the use of an operational amplifier and a pair of matched resistors in an inverting configuration. The disadvantage to that approach is that the largest single source of error in the circuit is the relative matching of the resistors used. In many portable instrumentation applications, where PC board cost and area go hand-in-hand, circuit interconnects are very often of dimensionally minimum width. These narrow lines can cause large voltage drops if the voltage reference is required to provide load currents to various functions. In fact, a circuit's interconnects can exhibit a typical line resistance of 0.45 m/ square (1 oz. Cu, for example). Force and sense connections, also referred to as Kelvin connections, offer a convenient method of eliminating the effects of voltage drops in circuit wires. Load currents flowing through wiring resistance produce an error (VERROR = R x IL ) at the load. However, the Kelvin connection of Figure 7 overcomes the problem by including the wiring resistance within the forcing loop of the op amp. Since the op amp senses the load voltage, op amp loop control forces the output to compensate for the wiring error and to produce the correct voltage at the load. A negative reference can easily be generated by adding a precision op amp and configuring as in Figure 5. VOUT is at virtual ground and, therefore, the negative reference can be taken directly from the output of the op amp. The op amp must be dual supply, low offset, and have rail-to-rail capability if negative supply voltage is close to the reference output.

R2B in theory can be made as small as needed to achieve the current needed within A 2 output current driving capability. In this example, OP2177 is able to deliver a maximum of 10 mA. Since the current pump employs both positive and negative feedback, capacitors C1 and C2 are needed to ensure the negative feedback prevails and, therefore, avoids oscillation. This circuit also allows bidirectional current flow if the inputs VA and VB of the digital potentiometer are supplied with the dual polarity references as shown previously. +10V 2 VIN VOUT 6 ADR425 U1 GND R1 5.6k TRIM 5 4 R2 5.6k V+ OP1177 -2.5V U2 V- Programmable DAC Reference Voltage -10V Figure 9. +2.5 V and -2.5 V Reference Using ADR425 Dual polarity references can easily be made with an op amp and a pair of resistors. In order not to defeat the accuracy obtained by ADR42x, it is imperative to match the resistance tolerance as well as the temperature coefficient of all the components. With a multichannel DAC such as a Quad 12-bit voltage output DAC AD7398, one of its internal DACs and an ADR42x voltage reference can be served as a common programmable VREFX for the rest of the DACs.

Programmable DAC Reference Precision Voltage Reference for Data Converters The ADR42x family has a number of features that make it ideal for use with A/D and D/A converters. The exceptional low noise, tight temperature coefficient, and high accuracy characteristics make the ADR42x ideal for low noise applications such as cellular base station applications. A precision voltage output with boosted current capability can be realized with the circuit shown in Figure 13. In this circuit, U2 forces VO to be equal to VREF by regulating the turn on of N1, therefore, the load current will be furnished by VIN. In this configuration, a 50 mA load is achievable at VIN of 5 V. Moderate heat will be generated on the MOSFET and higher current can be achieved with a replacement of the larger device. In addition, for heavy capacitive load with step input, a buffer may be added at the output to enhance the transient response.

The AD7701 is a 16-bit A/D converter with on-chip digital filtering intended for the measurement of wide dynamic range and low frequency signals such as those representing chemical, physical, or biological processes. It contains a chargebalancing (sigma-delta) ADC, calibration microcontroller with on-chip static RAM, a clock oscillator, and a serial communications port. 25 2 U1 2N7002 VIN VOUT TRIM GND 4 6 5 V+ AD8601 V- U2 ADR421 Figure 13.
