Precision 5V reference for analog and mixed-signal boards
The Maxim Integrated MAX6195AESA+ is a series voltage reference that outputs a fixed 5V with an initial tolerance of ±0.04%. Its temperature coefficient of 5ppm/°C keeps the output stable across the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range, making it a solid choice for ADC references, sensor excitation, or precision bias supplies where drift matters.
What the ratings mean for your BOM
The 5ppm/°C drift keeps the output stable across -40°C to +85°C. Output current is limited to 500 µA. That's enough to bias the reference input of one or two ADCs and a small resistive divider, but not enough to power external op-amps or a load cell. Plan a buffer if you need to drive more than a few hundred microamps.
Lifecycle and sourcing
The MAX6195AESA+ is listed as Active with ROHS3 compliance.
