Product catalog summary
Description: The VRE107 Series Precision Voltage References provide ultrastable ±5 V outputs with an initial accuracy of ±0.8 mV and a temperature coefficient as low as 1.33 ppm/°C over the full military temperature range. This is achieved through a proprietary multipoint laser compensation technique, enhancing accuracy, warm-up drift, line regulation, and long-term stability. These references are ideal for precision applications such as A/D and D/A converters, high accuracy test and measurement instrumentation, and transducer excitation.

  • Excellent Stability: 6 ppm/1000 Hrs. Typical
  • Excellent Line Regulation: 6 ppm/V Typical
  • Wide Supply Range: ±13.5 V to ±22 V
  • Hermetic 14-pin Ceramic DIP
  • Military Processing Option
Applications:
  • Precision A/D and D/A Converters
  • Transducer Excitation
  • Accurate Comparator Threshold Reference
  • High Resolution Servo Systems
  • Digital Voltmeters
  • High Precision Test and Measurement Instruments
Electrical Specifications: The VRE107 series operates with a power supply range of ±13.5 V to ±22 V and can function within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. It features a continuous short circuit protection and an output voltage of ±5 V. The initial error is ±900 µV for the VRE107M model and ±800 µV for the VRE107MA model. The warmup drift is 2 ppm for VRE107M and 1 ppm for VRE107MA. Long-term stability is 6 ppm/1000hrs, and noise is 3 µVpp.
Theory of Operation: The VRE107 series uses a FET current source to bias a 6.3 V zener diode, which is divided by a resistor network and amplified by an operational amplifier to produce a 5 V output. A nonlinear compensation network of thermistors and resistors is used to eliminate nonlinearity in the voltage vs. temperature function, ensuring stability over wide temperature ranges.
Application Information: Proper connection of the VRE107 series involves optional trim resistors for fine adjustment. The ground terminal is brought out on two pins to achieve greater accuracy when using a socket. By connecting pin 7 to the power supply ground and pin 6 to a high impedance ground point, errors due to contact resistance can be eliminated.

This impovement in accuracy is made possible by a unique, proprietary multipoint laser compensation technique. Significant improvements have been made in other performance parameters as well, including initial accuracy, warm-up drift, line regulation, and long-term stability, making the VRE107 series the most accurate and stable 5 V references available. VRE107 series devices are available in two performance grades. All devices are packaged in 14-pin hermetic ceramic packages for maximum long-term stablity. “M” versions are screened for high reliability and quality. Superior stability, accuracy, and quality make these references ideal for precision applications such as A/D and D/A converters, high accuracy test and measurement instrumentation, and tranducer excitation.

TYPICAL PERFORMANCE GRAPHS NEGATIVE OUTPUT QUIESCENT CURRENT VS. TEMP JUNCTION TEMP. RISE VS. OUTPUT CURRENT The following discussion refers to the block diagram in Figure 1. A FET current source is used to bias a 6.3 V zener diode. The zener voltage is divided by the resistor network R1 and R2. This voltage is then applied to the noninvert- ing input of the operational amplifier which amplifies the voltage to produce a 5 V output. The gain is determined by the resistor networks R3 and R4: G=1 + R4/R3. The 6.3 V zener diode is used because it is the most stable diode The current source provides...

VRE107 series references. This proprietary network eliminates most of the nonlinearity in the voltage vs. temperature function. By then adjusting the slope, The VRE107 series produces a very stable voltage over wide temperature ranges. This network is less than 2% of the overall network resistance so it has a negligible effect on long term stability. The proper connection of the VRE107 series voltage reference is shown below with the optional trim resistors. When trimming the VRE107, the positive voltage should be trimmed first since the negative voltage tracks the positive side. Pay careful...
