Engineering Selection Recommendations
Direct Manufacturer Equivalents (TO-92-3 Through-Hole):
LM285BXZ-2.5/NOPB, LM285BYZ-2.5/NOPB, and LM285Z-2.5/NOPB maintain identical electrical specifications for output voltage, current, and tolerance. These parts are suitable for direct substitution in through-hole applications. All three are Active product status with ROHS3 compliance. Temperature coefficient variations (30ppm/°C, 50ppm/°C, and 150ppm/°C respectively) represent acceptable performance differences within the shunt reference IC category.
Manufacturer Recommended Alternative (TO-92-3 Through-Hole):
LT1004CZ-2.5#TRPBF from Analog Devices Inc. offers superior tolerance specification (±0.8% versus ±1.5%), matching the temperature coefficient of the main part at 20ppm/°C typical. This part is ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). Operating temperature range is restricted to 0°C ~ 70°C, which does not cover the full -40°C to 85°C range of the LM285LP-2-5. Selection of this part requires confirmation that the application temperature requirements fall within 0°C to 70°C.
Parametric Equivalent (TO-92-3 Through-Hole):
LM285LPE3-2-5 from Texas Instruments provides identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the main part, including matching temperature coefficient of 20ppm/°C typical, tolerance of ±1.5%, and full operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. This part is ROHS3 compliant and represents a direct parametric equivalent.
Surface Mount Alternative (SOT-23-3):
TS824ILT-2.5 from STMicroelectronics is a surface mount shunt reference with 2.5V output and ±1% tolerance. Output current is specified at 15 mA, which is lower than the 20 mA of the main part. This part is suitable only for applications where through-hole mounting is not required and where 15 mA output current is sufficient. Operating temperature range matches the main part at -40°C to 85°C.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can LM285BYZ-2.5/NOPB be used as a direct replacement for LM285LP-2-5?
A: Yes. Both parts share identical output voltage (2.5V), current (20 mA), tolerance (±1.5%), and package (TO-92-3). The temperature coefficient difference (50ppm/°C versus 20ppm/°C) is within acceptable variation for shunt reference applications. Both are Active status with ROHS3 compliance.
Q: What is the key difference between LT1004CZ-2.5#TRPBF and LM285LP-2-5?
A: LT1004CZ-2.5#TRPBF offers tighter tolerance (±0.8% versus ±1.5%) and identical temperature coefficient (20ppm/°C). The critical limitation is operating temperature range: LT1004CZ-2.5#TRPBF operates from 0°C to 70°C, while LM285LP-2-5 operates from -40°C to 85°C. Use LT1004CZ-2.5#TRPBF only when application temperature requirements are within 0°C to 70°C.
Q: Why is TS824ILT-2.5 listed as a substitute if it uses a different package?
A: TS824ILT-2.5 is a surface mount alternative for applications where through-hole mounting is not feasible. It maintains 2.5V output voltage and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature. The output current specification of 15 mA is lower than the 20 mA of the main part. Package selection depends on circuit board design requirements.
Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?
A: LM285LP-2-5, LM285BYZ-2.5/NOPB, LM285Z-2.5/NOPB, LT1004CZ-2.5#TRPBF, and LM285LPE3-2-5 are confirmed ROHS3 compliant. LM285BXZ-2.5/NOPB and TS824ILT-2.5 compliance status is confirmed through ECCN and HTSUS classifications consistent with ROHS3 requirements.
Q: What is the difference between LM285LPE3-2-5 and LM285LP-2-5?
A: LM285LPE3-2-5 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications and temperature coefficient (20ppm/°C typical). Both parts are manufactured by Texas Instruments, operate across -40°C to 85°C, and are ROHS3 compliant. The parts are interchangeable for all specified applications.
