A voltage reference is an accurate, temperature-compensated voltage source that provides specific output voltage values, such as 1.225 V, 4.096 V, or 10.000 V. Voltage reference ICs can be either ...
The voltage reference sets the limit to the input analog signal that the ADC can resolve. Equation 1 is the ideal transfer function of an ADC where the output code—in decimal form—is computed by the ...
A precision voltage reference is useful in the lab for checking your multimeters. This post describes the construction of a poor man’s precision voltage reference. It is great for checking any ...
