REF102AUG4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

REF102AUG4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended output capacitor value for the REF102AUG4?
  The recommended output capacitor value is 10uF to 22uF, but it can be adjusted based on the specific application and noise requirements.
• How do I ensure the REF102AUG4 is stable and accurate over temperature?
  To ensure stability and accuracy, it's essential to follow proper PCB layout and thermal management practices, such as keeping the device away from heat sources and using a thermally conductive pad.
• Can I use the REF102AUG4 in a high-temperature environment?
  While the REF102AUG4 is rated for operation up to 125°C, it's essential to consider the device's thermal limitations and potential degradation of accuracy and stability at high temperatures.
• How do I minimize noise and ripple on the REF102AUG4 output?
  To minimize noise and ripple, use a low-ESR output capacitor, keep the device away from noise sources, and consider adding a noise-reducing filter or regulator if necessary.
• Can I use the REF102AUG4 as a reference for an ADC or DAC?
  Yes, the REF102AUG4 is suitable for use as a reference for ADCs or DACs, but ensure the reference voltage is within the converter's specified range and that the REF102AUG4 is properly decoupled and filtered.
