It is a series reference, not a shunt type, so it sources current to the load and draws a 1.2 mA quiescent supply current. The 10 mA output capability covers the reference input of most SAR and delta-sigma ADCs plus a small buffer or divider if needed.
8 ppm/°C drift and 3 µVp-p noise — the stability envelope
Temperature coefficient is 8 ppm/°C typical. This is the flicker noise floor that matters for precision DC measurements — weigh-scale, thermocouple, or strain-gauge front-ends. The 3 µVp-p figure is competitive with other 5 V series references in the same package class.
Package, footprint, and sourcing
The REF5050AIDGKT is supplied in an 8-VSSOP package (3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body).
