[volt-nuts] Voltage Reference.

[Andreas Jahn]

Hello Dan,

yes the thermal shield is standard on all LM399.
But additional thermal shielding of the pins/housing on both sides of the
PCB will improve stability (noise + tilting effects).

Since National Semiconductors (TI) has discontinued the LM399,
Linear Technology is now the only manufacturer.
DigiKey has the LM399 on stock.

With best regards

Andreas
