REF02HP+ datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

REF02HP+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended input voltage range for the REF02HP+?
  The recommended input voltage range for the REF02HP+ is 4.5V to 36V, although it can operate up to 40V with reduced accuracy.
• How do I ensure the REF02HP+ is stable and accurate in my design?
  To ensure stability and accuracy, make sure to decouple the input and output pins with 10uF capacitors, and use a low-ESR capacitor (e.g., ceramic or film) for the output capacitor. Also, keep the layout clean and avoid noise coupling.
• What is the output current capability of the REF02HP+?
  The REF02HP+ can source up to 10mA of output current, making it suitable for most precision analog circuits. However, it's recommended to limit the output current to 5mA for optimal accuracy and stability.
• Can I use the REF02HP+ in a high-temperature environment?
  Yes, the REF02HP+ is rated for operation up to 125°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications. However, the accuracy and stability may degrade at extreme temperatures, so it's essential to consult the datasheet for temperature-related specifications.
• How do I handle the noise sensitivity of the REF02HP+?
  To minimize noise sensitivity, use a low-noise power supply, and add a 10uF capacitor between the input pin and ground. Also, keep the REF02HP+ away from noisy components and traces, and use a shielded enclosure if possible.
