REF5010AID datasheet by Texas Instruments

REF5010AID Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the typical output impedance of the REF5010AID?
  The typical output impedance of the REF5010AID is around 0.5 ohms.
• How do I ensure the REF5010AID is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, make sure to decouple the input pin with a 10uF capacitor, and use a 10nF capacitor on the output pin to ground. Also, keep the PCB layout clean and avoid long traces.
• What is the recommended input voltage range for the REF5010AID?
  The recommended input voltage range for the REF5010AID is 4.5V to 18V. Operating outside this range may affect the accuracy and stability of the voltage reference.
• Can I use the REF5010AID in a high-temperature environment?
  The REF5010AID is rated for operation up to 125°C. However, the accuracy and stability may degrade at higher temperatures. Consider using a thermally-enhanced package or a different voltage reference if high-temperature operation is required.
• How do I calculate the output voltage tolerance of the REF5010AID?
  The output voltage tolerance of the REF5010AID is typically ±0.05% at 25°C. To calculate the tolerance, multiply the nominal output voltage (5.0V) by the tolerance percentage (0.05%). This gives you a tolerance range of ±2.5mV.
