The core circuit probably doesn't differ too much from the positive
reference circuit shown on the LTZ1000 datasheet.
It certainly wont be identical to the negative reference shown on that
datasheet which has the heater pins reversed (as shown it will cause a
large current to flow in the parasitic shunt diode connected across the
heater resistor).
NB use the latest datasheet which has a corrected schematic showing the
location and polarity of the parasitic diodes.
