1FEATURES DESCRIPTION
The LM136A-2.5QML integrated circuit is a precision
2 Available with Radiation Specification 2.5V shunt regulator diode. This monolithic IC voltage
Total Ionizing Dose 100 krad(Si) reference operates as a low-temperature-coefficient
ELDRS Free 100 krad(Si) 2.5V zener with 0.2Ωdynamic impedance. A third
terminal on the LM136A-2.5QML allows the reference
Low Temperature Coefficient voltage and temperature coefficient to be trimmed
Wide Operating Current of 400 μA to 10 mA easily.
Specified Temperature Stability The LM136A-2.5QML is useful as a precision 2.5V
Easily Trimmed for Minimum Temperature Drift low voltage reference for digital voltmeters, power
Fast Turn-on supplies or op amp circuitry. The 2.5V make it
convenient to obtain a stable reference from 5V logic
3–Lead Transistor Package supplies. Further, since the LM136A-2.5QML
operates as a shunt regulator, it can be used as
either a positive or negative voltage reference.

which the device is functional, but do not ensure specific performance limits. For ensured specifications and test conditions, see the
Electrical Characteristics. The ensured specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may
degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.
(2) The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJmax (maximum junction temperature),
θJA (package junction to ambient thermal resistance), and TA(ambient temperature). The maximum allowable power dissipation at any
temperature is PDmax = (TJmax - TA)/θJA or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower.

APPLICATION HINTS
The LM136 voltage reference is much easier to use than ordinary zener diodes. It's low impedance and wide
operating current range simplify biasing in almost any circuit. Further, either the breakdown voltage or the
temperature coefficient can be adjusted to optimize circuit performance.
Figure 12 shows an LM136 with a 10k potentiometer for adjusting the reverse breakdown voltage. With the
addition of R1 the breakdown voltage can be adjusted without affecting the temperature coefficient of the device.
The adjustment range is usually sufficient to adjust for both the initial device tolerance and inaccuracies in buffer
circuitry.
If minimum temperature coefficient is desired, two diodes can be added in series with the adjustment
potentiometer as shown in Figure 13. When the device is adjusted to 2.490V the temperature coefficient is
minimized. Almost any silicon signal diode can be used for this purpose such as a 1N914, 1N4148 or a 1N457.
For proper temperature compensation the diodes should be in the same thermal environment as the LM136. It is
usually sufficient to mount the diodes near the LM136 on the printed circuit board. The absolute resistance of R1
is not critical and any value from 2k to 20k will work.
