RH1021-7
Precision 7V Reference
DESCRIPTION
The RH1021-7 is a precision 7V reference with ultralow
drift and noise, extremely good long-term stability and
almost total immunity to input voltage variations. The
reference output will source and sink up to 10mA. This
reference can also be used as a shunt regulator
(2-terminal Zener). Unique circuit design makes the
RH1021-7 the first IC reference to offer ultralow drift
without the use of high power on-chip heaters.
The wafer lots are processed to Linear Technology’s in-
house Class S flow to yield circuits usable in stringent
military applications.

TABLE 1A: ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1:
Output voltage is measured immediately after turn-on. Changes
due to chip warm-up are typically less than 0.005%.
Note 2:
Temperature coefficient is measured by dividing the change in
output voltage over the temperature range by the change in temperature.
Separate tests are done for hot and cold; T
MIN
to 25°C and 25°C to T
MAX
.
Incremental slope is also measured at 25°C.
Note 3:
Line and load regulation are measured on a pulse basis. Output
changes due to die temperature change must be taken into account
separately. Package thermal resistance is 150°C/W for the TO-5 (H)
package.
Note 4:
Shunt mode regulation is measured with the input open. With the
input connected, shunt mode current can be reduced to 0mA. Load
regulation will remain the same.
Note 5:
RMS noise is measured with a 2-pole highpass filter at 10Hz and a
2-pole lowpass filter at 1kHz. The resulting output is full wave rectified and
then integrated for a fixed period, making the final reading an average as
opposed to RMS. Correction factors are used to convert from average to
RMS and to correct for the nonideal bandpass of the filters. Peak-to-peak
noise is measured with a single highpass filter at 0.1Hz and a 2-pole
lowpass filter at 10Hz. The unit is enclosed in a still-air environment to
eliminate thermocouple effects on the leads. Test time is 10 seconds.

PDA Test Notes
The PDA is specified as 5% based on failures from group A, subgroup 1,
tests after cooldown as the final electrical test in accordance with method
5004 of MIL-STD-883. The verified failures of group A, subgroup 1, after
burn-in divided by the total number of devices submitted for burn-in in
that lot shall be used to determine the percent for the lot.
Linear Technology Corporation reserves the right to test to tighter limits
than those given.
