Output drive and supply headroom
The LTC6655LNCHMS8-4.096#PBF: The part sources up to 5 mA of output current, enough to bias multiple ADC reference inputs or a small sensor bridge without an external buffer. Input voltage range extends to 13.2 V, giving 9 V of headroom above the 4.096 V output for line regulation margin. Quiescent supply current is 7.5 mA typical; the series topology means load current comes from the input rail, not the output, so the reference's own dissipation stays low even when sourcing the full 5 mA.
Package and board integration
The 8-lead MSOP footprint matches the 8-TSSOP land pattern, simplifying PCB layout. Supplied in tube packaging, suitable for low-to-mid volume production or prototyping where tape-and-reel is not required.
