Precision Reference
The LM199/LM399 precision shunt reference features
excellent temperature stability over a wide range of volt-
age, temperature and operating current conditions. A
stabilizing heater is incorporated with the active Zener on
a monolithic substrate which nearly eliminates changes in
voltage with temperature. The subsurface Zener operates
over a current range of 0.5mA to 10mA, and offers minimal
noise and excellent long-term stability.
Ideal applications for the LM199/LM399 include digital volt-
meters, precision calibration equipment, current sources
and a variety of other precision low cost references. A 10V
buffered reference application is shown below.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The substrate is electrically connected to the negative terminal
of the temperature stabilizer. The voltage that can be applied to either
terminal of the reference is 40V more positive or 0.1V more negative than
the substrate.
Note 3: These specifications apply for 30V applied to the temperature
stabilizer and –55°C ≤ TA ≤ 125°C for the LM199; and 0°C ≤ TA ≤ 70°C for
the LM399.
Note 4: Devices with maximum guaranteed long-term stability of
20ppm/√kH are available. Drift decreases with time.
Note 5: This initial current can be reduced by adding an appropriate
resistor and capacitor to the heater circuit. See the Typical Performance
Characteristics graphs to determine values.
Note 6: Guaranteed by “Reverse Breakdown Change with Current.”
