GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The REF03 precision voltage reference provides a stable 2.5 V
output, with minimal change for variations in supply voltage,
ambient temperature, or loading conditions. Single-supply
operation over an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 33 V with a
current drain of 1 mA and good temperature stability is
achieved using an improved band gap design. Primarily
targeted at price sensitive applications, the REF03 is available in
plastic mini DIPs and surface-mount small outline plastic
packages. For improved performance or −40°C to +125°C
operation, see the ADR03 data sheet.

Absolute maximum ratings apply to both DICE and packaged parts, unless otherwise noted.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only;
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational section of this specification is
not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
