The LM185-1.2 is a micropower, 2-terminal bandgap regulator diode. Operating over a current range of 10μA to 20mA, it features very low dynamic impedance and good temperature stability. On-chip trimming is used to provide tight voltage tolerances. Since the LM185-1.2 bandgap reference uses only transistors and resistors, low noise and good long-term stability results.
The LM185-1.2 is an exceptionally forgiving capacitive load device designed to use for almost any reference application. The wide dynamic range of operations allows its use to vary greatly with excellent regulated supply.
LM185-1.2 extremely low power consumption enables microcircuits. This reference voltage can be used to make portable meters, regulatory agencies, or analog circuits with universal battery life near-shelf life.
In addition, the wide operating current allows it to replace older references in parts with tighter tolerances.
