Long-Term Drift in Voltage References

Multiple industrial applications, such as grid monitoring and remote field sensors, require instrumentation that operates with high precision over a long period of time. For such use cases with long life times, the Long-Term Drift (LTD) parameter of voltage references, becomes critically important. This application note describes the Long-Term Drift parameter, factors which affect it, how it is measured and gives sample profiles of some of the TI precision voltage references.
