Hi,
We normally use Voltage Reference to maintain precise reference voltage where large amount of current is not required for example to compare two voltages using OpAmp or Vref for ADC/DAC etc. Voltage Reference usually have low temperature drift. On the other hand, Voltage Regulators provide constant voltage with large currents. Voltage Regulators can be used as Voltage Source to drive loads which require more current.
The Voltage Reference can also be used together with Voltage Follower using OpAmp which can also provide large current. This means they can also be used as Voltage Source. What are the advantages and limitations of Voltage Regulators and Voltage Reference with Voltage Follower ? if we use them as Voltage Source.
