GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADR44x series is a family of XFET® voltage references
featuring ultralow noise, high accuracy, and low temperature
drift performance. Using Analog Devices, Inc., patented
temperature drift curvature correction and XFET (eXtra
implanted junction FET) technology, voltage change vs.
temperature nonlinearity in the ADR44x is greatly minimized.

The XFET references offer better noise performance than

ried Zener references, and XFET references operate off

bu
low supply voltage headroom (0.5 V). This combination of
features makes the ADR44x family ideally suited for precision
signal conversion applications in high-end data acquisition
systems, optical networks, and medical applications.

The ADR44x family has the capability to source up to 10 mA of
o

utput current and sink up to −5 mA. It also comes with a trim
terminal to adjust the output voltage over a 0.5% range without
compromising performance.

THEORY OF OPERATION

The ADR44x series of references uses a new reference generation
technique known as XFET (eXtra implanted junction FET).
This technique yields a reference with low dropout, good
thermal hysteresis, and exceptionally low noise. The core of the
XFET reference consists of two junction field-effect transistors
(JFETs), one of which has an extra channel implant to raise its
pinch-off voltage. By running the two JFETs at the same drain
current, the difference in pinch-off voltage can be amplified
and used to form a highly stable voltage reference.

The intrinsic reference voltage is around 0.5 V with a negative
t

emperature coefficient of about –120 ppm/°C. This slope is
essentially constant to the dielectric constant of silicon, and it can
be closely compensated for by adding a correction term generated
in the same fashion as the proportional-to-absolute temperature
(PTAT) term used to compensate band gap references. The
advantage of an XFET reference is its correction term, which is
approximately 20 times lower and requires less correction than
that of a band gap reference. Because most of the noise of a band
gap reference comes from the temperature compensation
circuitry, the XFET results in much lower noise.

Figure 33 shows the basic topology of the ADR44x series. The

emperature correction term is provided by a current source with

POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS

The ADR44x family of references is guaranteed to deliver load
currents to 10 mA with an input voltage that ranges from 3 V to
18 V. When these devices are used in applications at higher
currents, use the following equation to account for the
temperature effects of increases in power dissipation:

BASIC VOLTAGE REFERENCE CONNECTIONS

The ADR44x family requires a 0.1 µF capacitor on the input
and the output for stability. Although not required for operation,
a 10 µF capacitor at the input can help with line voltage
transient performance.

NOISE PERFORMANCE

The noise generated by the ADR44x family of references is
typically less than 1.4 µV p-p over the 0.1 Hz to 10.0 Hz band
for ADR440, ADR441, and ADR443. Figure 26 shows the 0.1 Hz

o 10 Hz noise of the ADR441, which is only 1.2 µV p-p. The

t
noise measurement is made with a band-pass filter composed of
a 2pole high-pass filter with a corner frequency at 0.1 Hz and a
2pole low-pass filter with a corner frequency at 10.0 Hz.

TURN-ON TIME

Upon application of power (cold start), the time required for
the output voltage to reach its final value within a specified
error band is defined as the turn-on settling time. Two compo­nents normally associated with this are the time for the active
circuits to settle and the time for the thermal gradients on the
chip to stabilize.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

OUTPUT ADJUSTMENT

The ADR44x family features a TRIM pin that allows the user to
adjust the output voltage of the part over a limited range. This
allows errors from the reference and overall system errors to be
trimmed out by connecting a potentiometer between the output
and the ground, with the wiper connected to the TRIM pin.
Figure 35 shows the optimal trim configuration. R1 allows fine
ad

justment of the output and is not always required. R

the ADR44x is not exceeded.

Figure 35. ADR44x Trim Function

Using the trim function has a negligible effect on the temperature
performance of the ADR44x. However, all resistors need to be
low temperature coefficient resistors, or errors may occur.

BIPOLAR OUTPUTS

By connecting the output of the ADR44x to the inverting ter­minal of an operational amplifier, it is possible to obtain both
positive and negative reference voltages. Care must be taken
when choosing Resistors R1 and R2 (see Figure 36). These
r

esistors must be matched as closely as possible to ensure mini­mal differences between the negative and positive outputs. In
addition, care must be taken to ensure performance over
temperature. Use low temperature coefficient resistors if the
circuit is used over temperature; otherwise, differences exist
between the two outputs.

operational amplifier, such as the OP1177, to provide negative

oltage. This configuration provides two main advantages. First,

v
it only requires two devices; therefore, it does not require
excessive board space. Second, and more importantly, it does
not require any external resistors. This means the performance
of this circuit does not rely on choosing low temperature
coefficient resistors to ensure accuracy.

PROGRAMMABLE VOLTAGE SOURCE

To obtain different voltages than those offered by the ADR44x,
some extra components are needed. In Figure 38, two potenti-

meters are used to set the desired voltage and the buffering

o
amplifier provides current drive. The potentiometer connected
between V
noninverting input of the operational amplifier, takes care of
coarse trim. The second potentiometer, with its wiper connected
to the trim terminal of the ADR44x, is used for fine adjustment.
Resolution depends on the end-to-end resistance value and the
resolution of the selected potentiometer.

For a completely programmable solution, replace the two
potentiometers in Figure 38 with one Analog Devices dual
dig

ital potentiometer, offered with either an SPI or an I
interface. These interfaces set the position of the wiper on both
potentiometers and allow the output voltage to be set.

PROGRAMMABLE CURRENT SOURCE

It is possible to build a programmable current source using a
setup similar to the programmable voltage source, as shown in
Figure 39. The constant voltage on the gate of the transistor sets
t

he current through the load. Varying the voltage on the gate
changes the current. This circuit does not require a dual digital
potentiometer.
