Analog Devices Inc. LT3040 Voltage Output Reference/DAC
Analog Devices Inc. LT3040 Voltage Output Reference/DAC is a buffer that employs a unique architecture that seeks to maintain the precision and accuracy of the Reference or DAC while sourcing up to 200mA. It features ADI’s ultra-low noise and ultra-high PSRR architecture for powering noise-sensitive, high accuracy systems. Designed as an advanced voltage buffer for Voltage Output References/DACs, the LT3040 features extremely low 1/f noise and very low wideband noise. It also offers excellent PSRR over a wide frequency range and low dropout performance – a typical 350mV dropout at 200mA of source current.The operating quiescent current is nominally 2.5mA and drops to < 1μA in shutdown. The LT3040’s wide output voltage range (0V to 15V) while maintaining unity-gain operation provides virtually constant output noise, PSRR, bandwidth, and load regulation independent of the VIN voltage. The buffer also features a programmable current limit, fast-start capability, and a FAULT flag to indicate faults on the output. The LT3040 is stable with a minimum 4.7μF ceramic output capacitor. Built-in protection includes reverse supply voltage protection, reverse current protection, internal current limit with fold-back, and thermal limit with hysteresis. The LT3040 is available in thermally enhanced 12-Lead MSOP and 10-Lead 3mm×3mm DFN packages.
