The LM385 is a micropower 3-terminal adjustable band-gap voltage reference diodes. Operating from
1.24 to 5.3V and over a 10μA to 20mA current range, it features exceptionally low dynamic impedance and good temperature stability. On-chip trimming is used to provide tight voltage tolerance. Since the device uses only transistors and resistors, low noise and good long-term stability result.
Careful design of the LM385 has made the device tolerant of capacitive loading, making it easy to use in almost any reference application. The wide dynamic operating range allows its use with widely varying supplies with excellent regulation.
The extremely low power drain of the LM385 makes it useful for micropower circuitry. This voltage reference can be used to make portable meters, regulators or general purpose analogue circuitry with battery life approaching shelf life.
Rated for operation over a 0°C to 70°C temperature range and supplied in a a low-cost TO-92 molded
package.
Features Include:
Adjustable from 1.24V to 5.30V
Operating current of 10μA to 20mA
1% and 2% initial tolerance
