REF-01

[John Larkin]

I was looking for a fairly steady input to my VCO, to check frequency
stability, and remembered my old 10 volt REF-01 box. It's powered by a
14 volt wall-wart. I built and tweaked it about 10 years ago.

Presumably it has high input resistance so you can RC filter the heck out of it

Nice. I used a 10V Ref01 with 0.1% R's as a current source
(compliance voltage sucked.. ~6V.)

I used to use a fair number of those in one-offs. The temperature
output was useful too.

The VCO? No, it will be inside a fast PLL.

** I've been using a Nat Semi LH0070-1H for about 30 years to check and calibrate my various DMMs.

The 10V reference is fed from a 15V regualtor - both in TO5 pak.

The ten volt output is divided down by a string of 0.1% precision resistors to get accurate 1V and 100mV references.

Is that to me or JL?
The current source has a fet-opamp follower in the loop.
Feeding the common of the REF01.
(From AoE2 end of the chapter circuit ideas.)
