vre306-3 vre306-3ds 1 vre306-3 description the vre306-3 is a low cost, high precision +6 v refer - ence. available in an industry standard 8-pin surface mount package, the device is ideal for upgrading sys - tems that use lower performance references. the device provides ultrastable +6 v output with 0.6 mv (.01%) initial accuracy and a temperature coeff - cient of 0.6 ppm/oc. this improvement in accuracy is made possible by a unique, patented multipoint laser compensation technique. signifcant improvements have been made in other performance parameters as well, including initial accuracy, warm-up drift, line regu - lation, and long-term stability, making the vre306-3 series the most accurate reference available in a stan - dard 8-pin smt package. for enhanced performance, the vre306-3 has an ex - ternal trim option for users who want less than 0.01% initial error. for ultra low noise applications, an external capacitor can be attached between the noise reduction pin and the ground pin. a reference ground pin is pro - vided to eliminate socket contact resistance errors. features ? +6 v output, 0.6 mv (.01%) ? temperature drift: 0.6 ppm/oc ? low noise: 4 v p-p (0.1-10hz) ? industry standard pinout: 8-pin surface mount package ? excellent line regulation: 6 ppm/v typical ? output trim capability applications the vre306-3 is recommended for use as a ref - erence for 14, 16, or 18 bit d/a converters which require an external precision reference. the de - vice is also ideal for calibrating scale factor on high resolution a/d converters. the vre306-3 offers superior performance over monolithic ref - erences. precision voltage reference vre306-3 p r o d u c t i n n o v a t i o n f r o m ? figure 1. block diagram model initial error (mv) temp. coeff.

vre306-3 4 vre306-3ds the proper connection of the vre306-3 series voltage references with the optional trim resistor for initial error and the optional capacitor for noise reduction is shown below. the vre306-3 reference has the ground terminal brought out on two pins (pin 4 and pin 7) which are connected together internally. this allows the user to achieve greater accuracy when using a socket. voltage references have a voltage drop across their power supply ground pin due to quiescent current fowing through the contact resistance. if the contact resistance was constant with time and tem - perature, this voltage drop could be trimmed out. when the reference is plugged into a socket, this source of error can be as high as 20 ppm. by connecting pin 4 to the power supply ground and pin 7 to a high impedance ground point in the measurement circuit, the error due to the contact resistance can be eliminated. if the unit is soldered into place, the contact resistance is suffciently small that it does not effect performance. pay careful attention to the circuit layout to avoid noise pickup and voltage drops in the lines. external connections 8 4 6 5 + v o u t 2 + v in v r e30 6-3 10 kw c n 1 f opti o n a l nois e r e ducti o n c a p a c i t o r opti o n a l fine trim a dj us t m e nt 3 v temp out 7 r ef . gn d 5 6 7 8 v r e30 6-3 top vie w 1 2 3 4 n/c + v in t emp g n d noi s e reducti o n r ef . gn d v o u t trim contacting cirrus logic support for all apex precision power product questions and inquiries, call toll free 800-546-2739 in north america. for inquiries via email, please contact apex.support@cirrus.com. international customers can also request support by contacting their local cirrus logic sales representative. to fnd the one nearest to you, go to www.cirrus.com important notice cirrus logic, inc. and its subsidiaries ("cirrus") believe that the information contained in this document is accurate and reliable. however, the information is subject to change without notice and is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind (express or implied). customers are advised to obtain the latest version of relevant information to verify, before placing orders, that information being relied on is current and complete. all products are sold subject to the terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment, including those pertaining to warranty, indemnifcation, and limitation of liability. no responsibility is assumed by cirrus for the use of this information, including use of this information as the basis for manufacture or sale of any items, or for infringement of patents or other rights of third parties. this document is the property of cirrus and by furnishing this information, cirrus grants no license, express or implied under any patents, mask work rights, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights. cirrus owns the copyrights associated with the information contained herein and gives con - sent for copies to be made of the information only for use within your organization with respect to cirrus integrated circuits or other products of cirrus. this consent does not extend to other copying such as copying for general distribution, advertising or promotional purposes, or for creating any work for resale. certain applications using semiconductor products may involve potential risks of death, personal injury, or severe prop - erty or environmental damage (critical applications). cirrus products are not designed, authorized or warranted to be suitable for use in products surgically implanted into the body, automotive safety or security devices, life support prod - ucts or other critical applications. inclusion of cirrus products in such applications is understood to be fully at the cus - tomers risk and cirrus disclaims and makes no warranty, express, statutory or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for particular purpose, with regard to any cirrus product that is used in such a manner. if the customer or customers customer uses or permits the use of cirrus products in critical applications, customer agrees, by such use, to fully indemnify cirrus, its officers, directors, employees, distributors and other agents from any and all liability, including attorneys fees and costs, that may result from or arise in connection with these uses. cirrus logic, cirrus, and the cirrus logic logo designs, apex precision power, apex and the apex precision power logo designs are trademarks of cirrus logic, inc. all other brand and product names in this document may be trademarks or service marks of their respective owners. pin configuration p r o d u c t t e c h n o l o g y f r o m
