Voltage References

REF102CP Description

The REF102CP from Texas Instruments is a high-precision 10V series voltage reference designed for demanding applications requiring ultra-stable voltage regulation. Housed in an 8-pin DIP package, this IC delivers an exceptional ±0.025% initial accuracy and a low 2.5ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring minimal drift over temperature variations. Operating from an 11.4V to 36V input range, it provides a fixed 10V output with a 10mA current sourcing capability, making it suitable for precision analog systems. The REF102CP is RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting stringent environmental standards while maintaining high reliability.

REF102CP Features

• Ultra-High Precision: ±0.025% tolerance ensures minimal output deviation.
• Low Tempco: 2.5ppm/°C drift enhances stability across operating temperatures.
• Wide Input Range: 11.4V to 36V input flexibility for diverse power supplies.
• 10mA Output Current: Capable of driving moderate loads without external buffering.
• Low Supply Current: 1.4mA typical consumption for power-sensitive designs.
• Through-Hole Mounting: 8-DIP package for easy prototyping and industrial use.
• Obsolete Status: Still valuable for legacy systems requiring high precision.

REF102CP Applications

The REF102CP excels in applications demanding high accuracy and stability, such as:

• Precision Data Acquisition Systems: Ensures ADC/DAC reference integrity.
• Industrial Instrumentation: Calibration equipment, sensor signal conditioning.
• Medical Devices: Critical for diagnostic and monitoring systems.
• Test & Measurement: High-resolution oscilloscopes, multimeters.
• Aerospace & Defense: Reliable performance in harsh environments.

Conclusion of REF102CP

The REF102CP remains a robust choice for engineers needing a high-precision, low-drift voltage reference despite its obsolete status. Its exceptional accuracy, thermal stability, and load-driving capability make it ideal for legacy and specialized systems where performance outweighs availability concerns. For modern designs, TI's newer alternatives may be preferred, but the REF102CP continues to serve critical roles in precision electronics.
