USING REFERENCES AS POWER SUPPLIES
Recall the need for a quiet supply source for devices that use their power supply voltage as a reference voltage.
Since the DAC081S101 consumes very little power, a reference source may be used as the supply voltage. The
advantages of using a reference source over a voltage regulator are accuracy and stability. Some low noise
regulators can also be used for the power supply of the DAC081S101. Listed below are a few power supply
options for the DAC081S101.
LM4130
The LM4130 reference, with its 0.05% accuracy over temperature, is a good choice as a power source for the
DAC081S101. Its primary disadvantage is the lack of 3V and 5V versions. However, the 4.096V version is useful
if a 0 to 4.095V output range is desirable or acceptable. Bypassing the LM4130 VIN pin with a 0.1µF capacitor
and the VOUT pin with a 2.2µF capacitor will improve stability and reduce output noise. The LM4130 comes in a
space-saving 5-pin SOT23.

LM4050
Available with accuracy of 0.44%, the LM4050 shunt reference is also a good choice as a power regulator for the
DAC081S101. It does not come in a 3 Volt version, but 4.096V and 5V versions are available. It comes in a
space-saving 3-pin SOT-23.
