The LM113 is a temperature compensated, low voltage reference diode.  LM113 features extremely-tight regulation over a wide range of operating currents in addition to an unusually-low breakdown voltage and good temperature stability.

The diode LM113 is synthesized using transistors and resistors in a monolithic integrated circuit. As such, it has the same low noise and long term stability as modern IC op amps. Further, output voltage of the reference LM113 depends only on highly-predictable properties of components in the IC; so they can be manufactured and supplied to tight tolerances.  The characteristics of this reference LM113 recommend it for use in bias-regulation circuitry,in low-voltage power supplies or in battery powered equipment. The fact that the breakdown voltage is equal to a physical property of silicon-the energy-band gap voltage-makes it useful for many temperature-compensation and temperature-measurement functions.
