There's a reference with a built-in current source and amplifier,
which outputs on pin 6 on the DIP. That's the one that's specified as
7.15V ?0.35V.
The 723 in DIP also has a 6.2V zener diode in series from the
regulator output. It's not bonded out in the metal can package.
I've never found a 723 datasheet that gives a different values for
either reference.
The 9.4V that I'm getting from Vref, which is tied to the amplifier
IN+, exceeds the absolute maximum rating for the amplifier input,
which is 8.0V or 8.5V depending on the vendor.
The modern 723 datasheets seem to be dumbed down from the original
ones, with some useful information removed. :-(
