Voltage ReferenceA voltage reference is a power management integrated circuit (PMIC) that is used to provide a stable, constant voltage for use as a reference in an electronic system. Voltage references are typically used in applications where a stable, precise voltage is required, such as in precision measurement systems or in analog-to-digital converters.
Voltage references are available in different sizes, styles, and configurations, depending on the specific requirements of the application. They may be integrated into larger PMICs or systems, or may be separate chips that are connected to the other components of the system via a bus or interface. Voltage references typically include a number of features and functions, such as temperature compensation and noise reduction, to ensure that the reference voltage is stable and accurate.
Voltage references are an important part of many electronic systems that require precise voltage measurements or control, and are critical for ensuring that the system operates efficiently and reliably. They are commonly used in a variety of applications, such as precision measurement systems, analog-to-digital converters, and other electronic devices.
