Drift and noise across temperature
Low-frequency noise is specified at 27 µVp-p from 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz and 39 µVrms from 10 Hz to 10 kHz — these figures matter when the reference feeds a 16-bit or 18-bit ADC where the LSB noise budget is a few microvolts.
SOT-23-3 footprint and sourcing
Housed in a SOT-23-3 package (also known as TO-236-3 or SC-59), the REF3120AIDBZTG4 shares the same three-pin footprint as many other series references in this family, easing board layout for a second-source drop-in.
