DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The ZTR250 and ZTR500 are precision three
terminal references. These devices are ideal
for battery powered applications where
power saving is important. They offer low
power alternatives to other two terminal
shunt references.
The ZTR devices do not require an external
resistor and, in contrast to two terminal
references, waste none of the battery power
as load current varies. The ZTR only
consumes 30µA supply current.
The two devices require as low as 1.4 volts
between input and output for regulation.
Output voltage tolerance is ± 2.5%, with a
voltage variation of 0.275mV/°C over the
-55°C to 125°C operating range.

Note:
1. The maximum operating input voltage and output current of the device will be governed by the maximum
power dissipation of the selected package. Maximum package power dissipation is specified at 25 °C and
must be linearly derated to zero at T
2. The following data represents pulse test conditions with junction temperatures as indicated at the initiation
of the test. Continuous o peration of the devices with the stated conditions might exceed the po wer dissipation
limits of the chosen package.
3. This device does not contain a thermal shutdown circuit so care should be taken not to exceed the stated
maximum power dissipation rating.Maximum power dissipation, for the SOT23 and SOT89 packages, is
calculated assuming that the device is mounted on a ceramic substrate measuring 15 x 15 x 0.6mm.
