What the 4.096 V output and 30 ppm/°C drift mean on the bench
The ADR292GRUZ is an XFET® series voltage reference that outputs a fixed 4.096 V with ±0.24% initial tolerance — that initial error band is about ±9.8 mV, tight enough to set the full-scale of a 12-bit ADC without a trim pot on the board. Temperature drift is 30 ppm/°C typical, so from 25°C to 85°C the output shifts roughly 7.4 mV — the reference stays within a 0.18% window across the industrial temperature range without external compensation.
Supply current and output drive — where the 18 µA quiescent matters
Quiescent supply current is 18 µA typical, and the part can source or sink up to 5 mA at the output — that 5 mA is enough to drive the reference input of a successive-approximation ADC or a dozen op-amp non-inverting inputs without a buffer. Input voltage range is 5 V to 15 V, so it runs cleanly off a 5 V rail or a 12 V unregulated supply — the 4.096 V output is 0.9 V below the minimum input, leaving dropout margin for line transients.
Package and board-fit — 8-TSSOP, surface-mount, tube
Supplied in a tube (50 units per tube typically), so it feeds into a pick-and-place feeder without reel changeover — fine for prototype builds or low-volume production runs.
