PRODUCTION DATA
Thermal hysteresis for the device is defined as the change in output voltage after operating the device at 25°C, cycling the device through the specified temperature range, and returning to 25°C. Thermal hysteresis was measured with the REF60xx soldered to a PCB, similar to a real-world application. The PCB was baked at 150°C for 30 minutes before thermal hysteresis was measured. Thermal hysteresis is expressed as:

Typical thermal hysteresis distribution is shown in Figure 7-3 and Figure 7-4.
