We present estimates of intrinsic scatter in the Star Formation Rate (SFR) -\nStellar Mass (M*) correlation in the redshift range 0.5 < z < 3.0 and in the\nmass range 10^7 < M* < 10^11 Msun. We utilize photometry in the Hubble\nUltradeep Field (HUDF12), Ultraviolet Ultra Deep Field (UVUDF) campaigns and\nCANDELS/GOODS-S. We estimate SFR, M* from broadband Spectral Energy\nDistributions (SEDs) and the best available redshifts. The maximum depth of the\nHUDF photometry (F160W 29.9 AB, 5 sigma depth) probes the SFR-M* correlation\ndown to M* ~ 10 ^7 Msun, a factor of 10-100X lower in M* than previous studies,\nand comparable to dwarf galaxies in the local universe. We find the slope of\nthe SFR-M* relationship to be near unity at all redshifts and the normalization\nto decrease with cosmic time. We find a moderate increase in intrinsic scatter\nwith cosmic time from 0.2 to 0.4 dex across the epoch of peak cosmic star\nformation. None of our redshift bins show a statistically significant increase\nin intrinsic scatter at low mass. However, it remains possible that intrinsic\nscatter increases at low mass on timescales shorter than ~ 100 Myr. Our results\nare consistent with a picture of gradual and self-similar assembly of galaxies\nacross more than three orders of magnitude in stellar mass from as low as 10^7\nMsun.
