REF02HP datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

REF02HP Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended output capacitor value for the REF02HP?
  The recommended output capacitor value for the REF02HP is 10uF to 22uF, with a minimum ESR of 5 ohms to ensure stability.
• Can I use the REF02HP in a high-temperature environment?
  Yes, the REF02HP is rated for operation from -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications. However, the output voltage may drift slightly with temperature.
• How do I ensure the REF02HP is properly decoupled from the power supply?
  To ensure proper decoupling, use a 0.1uF to 1uF ceramic capacitor between the VCC pin and GND, and a 10uF to 22uF capacitor between the output pin and GND. This will help filter out noise and ensure stable operation.
• What is the typical startup time for the REF02HP?
  The typical startup time for the REF02HP is around 10ms to 20ms, depending on the output capacitor value and the power supply voltage.
• Can I use the REF02HP as a voltage reference for an ADC?
  Yes, the REF02HP is suitable for use as a voltage reference for an ADC. Its low noise and high accuracy make it an ideal choice for precision analog-to-digital conversion applications.
