5962-8982502PA

The 5962-8982502PA is a high-precision 10 V voltage reference manufactured by Analog Devices, derived from the AD587 architecture and qualified to MIL-STD-883 standards in an 8-pin ceramic dual-in-line package (CDIP). This device provides a stable 10.000 V output with laser-trimmed accuracy and excellent temperature stability, characteristic of the buried-Zener reference family. The hermetic CDIP construction ensures robust performance over the full military temperature range, with low output noise and excellent long-term drift characteristics that are critical for calibration and reference circuits in demanding environments.

Typical applications include precision data acquisition systems, high-resolution analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters, and avionics instrumentation, where a reliable voltage standard is essential for signal conditioning and absolute accuracy. In aerospace and defense systems, the device serves as a stable reference for guidance, navigation, and control electronics, while high-reliability industrial applications leverage it for process control and test equipment. From a procurement standpoint, this part number follows a military drawing format, indicating full qualification, traceability, and compliance with stringent screening requirements—mitigating risks associated with commercial-grade obsolescence. Design engineers should verify the active status and life-cycle support through the DLA MIL-PRF-38535 acquisition system, as military variants often enjoy extended availability compared to their commercial counterparts.
