LM336D-2-5 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating temperature range for the LM336D-2.5?
  The maximum operating temperature range for the LM336D-2.5 is -40°C to 85°C.
• How do I ensure the output voltage remains stable over time?
  To ensure the output voltage remains stable over time, it's essential to decouple the input and output pins with capacitors, and to use a low-ESR capacitor on the output pin to filter out noise and ripple.
• Can I use the LM336D-2.5 as a voltage regulator?
  No, the LM336D-2.5 is a voltage reference, not a voltage regulator. It's designed to provide a stable voltage reference, not to regulate voltage. If you need a voltage regulator, consider using a separate device, such as the LM317 or LM338.
• How do I calculate the output impedance of the LM336D-2.5?
  The output impedance of the LM336D-2.5 can be calculated using the formula: Zout = (ΔVout / ΔIout) || Rload, where ΔVout is the change in output voltage, ΔIout is the change in output current, and Rload is the load resistance.
• Is the LM336D-2.5 suitable for high-reliability applications?
  Yes, the LM336D-2.5 is suitable for high-reliability applications, such as aerospace, defense, and medical devices, due to its high accuracy, low noise, and robust design.
