A Review of Some Outstanding Monolithic Voltage
References and Their Applications
This chapter takes a brief look at some outstanding monolithic voltage reference prod-
ucts from several leading U.S. manufacturers and how they can be applied. Some
helpful design examples are also shown. In many cases the design can be further
enhanced by using some of the techniques discussed in earlier chapters, such as fil-
