TERMINOLOGY
Temperature Coefficient
Temperature coefficient is the change of output voltage with
respect to the operating temperature change normalized by the
output voltage at 25°C. This parameter is expressed in ppm/°C
and is determined by

Line Regulation
Line regulation is the change in the output due to a specified
change in input voltage. This parameter accounts for the effects
of self-heating. Line regulation is expressed in either %/V,
ppm/V, or µV/∆V
IN
.
Load Regulation
Load regulation is the change in output voltage due to a
specified change in load current. This parameter accounts for
the effects of self-heating. Load regulation is expressed in either
mV/mA, ppm/mA, or dc output resistance (Ω).
Long-Te rm Stabi lity
Long-term stability is the typical shift of output voltage at 25°C
on a sample of parts subjected to a test of 1000 hours at 25°C.

Thermal Hysteresis
Thermal hysteresis is the change of output voltage after the
device is cycled through temperatures from +25°C to −40°C to
+125°C, then back to +25°C. This is a typical value from a
sample of parts put through such a cycle.
