The LM185-2.5 is a two-terminal band gap reference
diode that has been designed for applications which
require precision performance with micropower opera-
tion. The device provides guaranteed operation specifica-
tions at currents as low as 20µA. The nominal voltage is
2.5V with both 1% and 2% tolerances available. Some
additional features are: maximum dynamic impedance of
1Ω, low noise and excellent stability over time and tem-
perature. The advanced design, processing and testing
techniques make Linear’s LM185-2.5 a superior choice
over previous designs. A circuit for cold junction compen-
sation of a thermocouple is shown below.
For applications requiring guaranteed temperature drift,
see the LT1034 data sheet.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
All specifications are for T
A
= 25°C unless otherwise noted. For the
LM185-2.5 T
MIN
= – 55°C and T
MAX
= 125°C. For LM285-2.5, T
MIN

MIN
= 0°C and T
MAX
= 70°C.
Note 3:
For very low initial tolerance, consult LT1004 data sheet. The
LT1004 is a low cost, pin for pin substitution device. For guaranteed
temperature coefficient consult the LT1034-2.5 data sheet.
Note 4:
Guaranteed but not tested.
