GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADR293 is a low noise, micropower precision voltage
®
reference that utilizes an XFET
FET)
reference circuit. The new XFET architecture offers sig-
(eXtra implanted junction
nificant performance improvements over traditional bandgap
and buried Zener-based references. Improvements include: one
quarter the voltage noise output of bandgap references operating
at the same current, very low and ultralinear temperature drift,
low thermal hysteresis and excellent long-term stability.
The ADR293 is a series voltage reference providing stable and
accurate output voltage from a 6.0 V supply. Quiescent current
is only 15 µA max, making this device ideal for battery powered
instrumentation. Three electrical grades are available offering
initial output accuracy of ±3 mV, ±6 mV, and ± 10 mV. Temperature coefficients for the three grades are 8 ppm/°C, 15 ppm/°C
and 25 ppm/°C max. Line regulation and load regulation are
typically 30 ppm/V and 30 ppm/mA, maintaining the reference’s
overall high performance.
The ADR293 is specified over the extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. This device is available in the
8-lead SOIC and 8-lead TSSOP packages.

ADR293
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADR293 uses a new reference generation technique known
as XFET,
which yields a reference with low noise, low supply
current and very low thermal hysteresis.
The core of the XFET reference consists of two junction fieldeffect transistors 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
temperature coefficient of about –120 ppm/K. This slope is
essentially locked to the dielectric constant of silicon and can be
closely compensated by adding a correction term generated in
the same fashion as the proportional-to-temperature (PTAT)
term used to compensate bandgap references. The big advantage over a bandgap reference is that the intrinsic temperature
coefficient is some thirty times lower (therefore less correction is
needed) and this results in much lower noise since most of the
noise of a bandgap reference comes from the temperature compensation circuitry.
The simplified schematic below shows the basic topology of the
ADR293. The temperature correction term is provided by a
current source with value designed to be proportional to absolute temperature. The general equation is:

The process used for the XFET reference also features vertical

devices to provide a very low drop-out voltage.

Device Power Dissipation Considerations
The ADR293 is guaranteed to deliver load currents to 5 mA
with an input voltage that ranges from 5.5 V to 15 V. When this
device is used in applications with large input voltages, care
should be exercised to avoid exceeding the published specifications for maximum power dissipation or junction temperature
that could result in premature device failure. The following
formula should be used to calculate a device’s maximum junction temperature or dissipation:

Noise Performance
The noise generated by the ADR293 is typically less than 15 µV p-p
over the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band. The noise measurement is made
with a bandpass filter made 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 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.
TPC 13 shows the typical turn-on time for the ADR293.

APPLICATIONS
A Negative Precision Reference without Precision Resistors
In many current-output CMOS DAC applications where
the output signal voltage must be of the same polarity as the
reference voltage, it is often required to reconfigure a currentswitching DAC into a voltage-switching DAC through the use
of a 1.25 V reference, an op amp and a pair of resistors. Using
a current-switching DAC directly requires the need for an
additional operational amplifier at the output to reinvert the
signal. A negative voltage reference is then desirable from the
point that an additional operational amplifier is not required
for either reinversion (current-switching mode) or amplification (voltage-switching mode) of the DAC output voltage. In
general, any positive voltage reference can be converted into a
negative voltage reference through the use of an operational
amplifier and a pair of matched resistors in an inverting configuration. The disadvantage to that approach is that the largest single
source of error in the circuit is the relative matching of the resistors used.
The circuit illustrated in Figure 3 avoids the need for tightly
matched resistors with the use of an active integrator circuit.
In this circuit, the output of the voltage reference provides the
input drive for the integrator. The integrator, to maintain circuit
equilibrium, adjusts its output to establish the proper relationship between the reference’s V
and GND. One caveat with
OUT
this approach should be mentioned: although rail-to-rail output
amplifiers work best in the application, these operational amplifiers require a finite amount (mV) of headroom when required
to provide any load current. The choice for the circuit’s negative
supply should take this issue into account.
A Precision Current Source
Many times in low power applications, the need arises for a precision current source that can operate on low supply voltages. As
shown in Figure 4, the ADR293 is configured as a precision
current source. The circuit configuration illustrated is a floating
current source with a grounded load. The reference’s output
voltage is bootstrapped across R
, which sets the output current
SET
into the load. With this configuration, circuit precision is maintained for load currents in the range from the reference’s supply
current, typically 15 µA to approximately 5 mA.

Kelvin Connections
In many portable instrumentation applications where PC board
cost and area go hand-in-hand, circuit interconnects are very often
of dimensionally minimum width. These narrow lines can cause
large voltage drops if the voltage reference is required to provide
load currents to various functions. In fact, a circuit’s interconnects
can exhibit a typical line resistance of 0.45 mΩ/square (1 oz. Cu,
for example). Force and sense connections also referred to as
Kelvin connections, offer a convenient method of eliminating the
effects of voltage drops in circuit wires. Load currents flowing
through wiring resistance produce an error (V
ERROR
= R ⫻ IL ) at
the load. However, the Kelvin connection of Figure 5 overcomes
the problem by including the wiring resistance within the forcing
loop of the op amp. Since the op amp senses the load voltage, op
amp loop control forces the output to compensate for the wiring
error and to produce the correct voltage at the load.

Voltage Regulator For Portable Equipment
The ADR293 is ideal for providing a stable, low cost and low
power reference voltage in portable equipment power supplies.
Figure 6 shows how the ADR293 can be used in a voltage
regulator that not only has low output noise (as compared to
switch mode design) and low power, but also a very fast recovery
after current surges. Some precautions should be taken in the
selection of the output capacitors. Too high an ESR (effective
series resistance) could endanger the stability of the circuit. A
solid tantalum capacitor, 16 V or higher, and an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, 10 V or higher, are recommended for C1 and
C2, respectively. Also, the path from the ground side of C1 and
C2 to the ground side of R1 should be kept as short as possible.
