High Precision610 V Reference
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTSThe AD688 offers precision tracking ±10 V Kelvin output
connections with no external components. Tracking error is
less than 1.5 mV and a fine-trim is available for applications
requiring exact symmetry between the +10 V and –10 V
outputs.The AD688 offers 12-bit absolute accuracy without any user
adjustments. Optional fine-trim connections are provided for
applications requiring higher precision. The fine-trimming
does not alter the operating conditions of the Zener or the
buffer amplifiers and thus does not increase the temperature
drift.Output noise of the AD688 is low – typically 6 μV p-p. A pin
is provided for broadband noise filtering using an external
capacitor.The AD688 is available in versions compliant with MIL-
STD-883. Refer to the Analog Devices Military Products
Databook or current AD688/883B data sheet for detailed
specifications.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONThe AD688 is a high precision ±10 V tracking reference. Low
tracking error, low initial error and low temperature drift give
the AD688 reference absolute ±10 V accuracy performance
previously unavailable in monolithic form. The AD688 uses a
proprietary ion-implanted buried Zener diode, and laser-wafer-
drift-trimming of high stability thin-film resistors to provide
outstanding performance at low cost.
The AD688 includes the basic reference cell and three additional
amplifiers. The amplifiers are laser-trimmed for low offset and
low drift and maintain the accuracy of the reference. The
amplifiers are configured to allow Kelvin connections to the
load and/or boosters for driving long lines or high current loads,
delivering the full accuracy of the AD688 where it is required in
the application circuit.
The low initial error allows the AD688 to be used as a system
reference in precision measurement applications requiring
12-bit absolute accuracy. In such systems, the AD688 can
provide a known voltage for system calibration and the cost of
periodic recalibration can therefore be eliminated. Furthermore,
the mechanical instability of a trimming potentiometer and the
potential for improper calibration can be eliminated by using
the AD688 and calibration software.
The AD688 is available in three versions. The AD688AQ and
BQ grades are packaged in 16-pin cerdip (0.3") packages and
are specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C. The AD688SQ
grade is specified for operation from –55°C to +125°C.

PIN CONFIGURATION
THEORY OF OPERATIONThe AD688 consists of a buried Zener diode reference, amplifi-
ers and associated thin-film resistors as shown in the block
diagram of Figure 1. The temperature compensation circuitry
provides the device with a temperature coefficient of 1.5 ppm/°C
or less.
Amplifier A1 performs several functions. A1 primarily acts to
amplify the Zener voltage to the required 20 volts. In addition,
A1 also provides for external adjustment of the 20 V output
through Pin 5, the GAIN ADJUST. Using the bias compensa-
tion resistor between the Zener output and the noninverting
input to A1, a capacitor can be added at the NOISE
REDUCTION pin (Pin 7) to form a low pass filter and reduce
the noise contribution of the Zener to the circuit. Two matched
12 kΩ nominal thin-film resistors (R4 and R5) divide the 20 V
output in half.
Ground sensing for the circuit is provided by Amplifier A2. The
noninverting input (Pin 9) senses the system ground and forces
the midpoint of resistors R4 and R5 to be a virtual ground. Pin
12 (BALANCE ADJUST) can be used for fine adjustment of
this midpoint transfer.
Amplifiers A3 and A4 are internally compensated and are used
to buffer the voltages at Pins 6 and 8 as well as to provide a full
Kelvin output. Thus, the AD688 has a full Kelvin capability by
providing the means to sense a system ground and provide
forced and sensed outputs referenced to that ground.

APPLYING THE AD688The AD688 can be configured to provide ±10 V reference out-
puts as shown in Figure 2a. The architecture of the AD688 pro-
vides ground sense and uncommitted output buffer amplifiers
which offer the user a great deal of functional flexibility. The
AD688 is specified and tested in the configuration shown in
Figure 2a. The user may choose to take advantage of other
configuration options available with the AD688; however
performance in these configurations is not guaranteed to meet
the stringent data sheet specifications.
Unbuffered outputs are available at Pins 6 and 8. Loading of
these unbuffered outputs will impair circuit performance.
Amplifiers A3 and A4 can be used interchangeably. However,
the AD688 is tested (and the specifications are guaranteed) with
the amplifiers connected as indicated in Figure 2a. When either
A3 or A4 is unused, its output force and sense pins should be
connected and the input tied to ground.
Two outputs of the same voltage polarity may be obtained by
connecting both A3 and A4 to the appropriate unbuffered out-
put on Pin 6 or 8. Performance in these dual output configura-
tions will typically meet data sheet specifications.
Figure 2a.+10 V and –10 V Outputs
CALIBRATIONGenerally, the AD688 will meet the requirements of a precision
system without additional adjustment. Initial output voltage
error of 2 mV and output noise specs of 6 μV p-p allow for
accuracies of 12-16 bits. However, in applications where an
even greater level of accuracy is required, additional calibration
may be called for. The provision for trimming has been made
through the use of the GAIN ADJUST and BALANCE
ADJUST pins (Pins 5 and 12, respectively).
The AD688 provides a precision 20 V span with a center tap
which is used with the buffer and ground sense amplifiers to
achieve the ±10 V output configuration. The GAIN ADJUST
and BALANCE ADJUST can be used to trim the magnitude of
the 20 V span voltage and the position of the center tap within
the span. The GAIN ADJUST should be performed first. Al-
though the trims are not interactive within the device, the GAIN
trim will move the BALANCE trim point as it changes the
magnitude of the span.
Figure 2b shows the GAIN and BALANCE trims of the
20 V between Pins 1 and 15, the amplifier outputs. The BAL-
ANCE potentiometer, also connected between Pins 6 and 8
with the wiper to Pin 12 (BAL ADJ), is then adjusted to center
the span from +10 V to –10 V.
Input impedance on both the GAIN ADJUST and the BAL-
ANCE ADJUST pins is approximately 150 kΩ. The GAIN
ADJUST trim network effectively attenuates the 20 V across the
trim potentiometer by a factor of about 1150 to provide a trim
range of –5.8 mV to + 12.0 mV with a resolution of approxi-
mately 900 μV/turn (20 turn potentiometer). The BALANCE
ADJUST trim network attenuates the trim voltage by a factor of
about 1250, providing a trim range of ±8 mV with a resolution
of 800 μV/turn.
Trimming the AD688 introduces no additional errors over
temperature, so precision potentiometers are not required.
In cases when BALANCE ADJUST is not necessary, Pin 12
should be left floating. If GAIN ADJUST is not required, Pin 5
should also be left floating.
Figure 2b. Gain and Balance Adjust with Noise Reduction
NOISE PERFORMANCE AND REDUCTIONThe noise generated by the AD688 is typically less than 6 μV
p-p over the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band. Noise in a 1 MHz
bandwidth is approximately 840 μV p-p. The dominant source
of this noise is the buried Zener which contributes approxi-
mately 140 nV/√Hz. In comparison, the op amp’s contribution
is negligible. Figure 3 shows the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz noise of a
typical AD688.
If further noise reduction is desired, an optional capacitor may
be added between the NOISE REDUCTION pin and ground as
shown in Figure 2b. This will form a low pass filter with the
5kΩ RB on the output of the Zener cell. A 1μF capacitor will
have a 3 dB point at 32 Hz and will reduce the high frequency
noise (to 1 MHz) to about 250 μV p-p. Figure 4 shows the 1 MHz
noise of a typical AD688 both with and without a 1μF capacitor.

Broadband Noise
TURN-ON TIMEUpon application of power (cold start), the time required for the
output voltage to reach its final value within a specified error is
the turn-on settling time. Two components normally associated
with this are: time for active circuits to settle and time for ther-
mal gradients on the chip to stabilize. Figure 5 shows the turn-
on characteristics of the AD688. It shows the settling time to be
about 600μs. Note the absence of any thermal tails when the
horizontal scale is expanded to 2 ms/cm in Figure 5b.Electrical Turn-OnExtended Time Scale

tion capacitor is used. When present, this capacitor presents an

resistor between Pins 6 and 2 is required for proper startup.

TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCEThe AD688 is designed for precision reference applications
where temperature performance is critical. Extensive tempera-
ture testing ensures that the device’s high level of performance is
maintained over the operating temperature range.
Figure 7 shows the typical output voltage drift for the
AD688SQ and illustrates the test methodology. The box in Fig-
ure 7 is bounded on the sides by the operating temperature
extremes and on top and bottom by the maximum and
minimum +10 V output error voltages measured over the
operating temperature range. The slopes of the diagonals drawn
for both the +10 V and –10 V outputs determine the perform-
ance grade of the device.
Figure 7.Typical AD688SQ Temperature Drift
Each AD688A and B grade unit is tested at –40°C, –25°C, 0°C,
+25°C, +50°C, +70°C and +85°C. Each AD688S grade unit is
tested at –55°C, –25°C, +25°C, +70°C and +125°C. This
approach ensures that the variations of output voltage that occur
as the temperature changes within the specified range will be
contained within a box whose diagonal has a slope equal to the
maximum specified drift. The position of the box on the vertical
scale will change from device to device as initial error and the
shape of the curve vary. Maximum height of the box for the
appropriate temperature range is shown in Figure 8.
AD688Duplication of these results requires a combination of high
accuracy and stable temperature control in a test system.
Evaluation of the AD688 will produce curves similar to those in
Figure 7, but output readings may vary depending on the test
methods and equipment utilized.
KELVIN CONNECTIONSForce and sense connections, also referred to as Kelvin connec-
tions, offer a convenient method of eliminating the effects of
voltage drops in circuit wires. As seen in Figure 9a, the load
Figure 9.Advantage of Kelvin Connection
current and wire resistance produce an error (VERROR = R × IL)
at the load. The Kelvin connection of Figure 9b overcomes the
problem by including the wire resistance within the forcing loop
of the amplifier and sensing the load voltage. The amplifier
corrects for any errors in the load voltage. In the circuit shown,
the output of the amplifier would actually be at 10 volts + VERROR
and the voltage at the load would be the desired 10 volts.
The AD688 has three amplifiers which can be used to imple-
ment Kelvin connections. Amplifier A2 is dedicated to the
ground force-sense function while uncommitted amplifiers A3
and A4 are free for other force-sense chores.
In some applications, one amplifier may be unused. In such
cases, the unused amplifier should be connected as a unity-gain
follower (force and sense pins tied together) and the input
should be connected to ground.
An unused amplifier may be used for other circuit functions as
well. The curves on this page show the typical performance of
A3 and A4.
