Voltage Options: 2.5V, 3V, 4.1V, 5V and Adjustable
The output voltage is set by an external resistor divider
for the adjustable LTC1798.
This series of references uses curvature compensation to

and fast settling is demanded.
The LTC1798 series references provided power dissipation
advantages over shunt references. In addition to supply
current, shunt references must also idle the entire load
current to operate.
The LTC1798 series is available in the SO-8 package.
