Product details
Overview
ADR5040AKSZ-R2 from Analog Devices is a precision 2.048 V shunt voltage reference in SC70-3 (KS-3) package, delivering ±0.2% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and stable operation from 50 µA to 15 mA over −40°C to +125°C - used for high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing and portable energy metering.
For engineers reviewing the ADR5040AKSZ-R2 datasheet, ADR5040AKSZ-R2 pinout, ADR5040AKSZ-R2 application, or ADR5040AKSZ-R2 equivalent, key selection criteria include output voltage tolerance at temperature extremes, minimum operating current under low-power sleep modes, dynamic impedance stability with capacitive loads, and compatibility with LM4040-based PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The ADR5040AKSZ-R2 implements a bandgap-derived shunt reference architecture with curvature-compensated core, enabling zero-TC operation near 2.048 V without external compensation. It operates as a two-terminal device requiring only an external bias resistor to regulate current flow through its V+ and V− terminals.
Its design eliminates need for output capacitance while maintaining stability across 0–1 µF load range and supports stacking for higher-voltage references. Thermal hysteresis is specified at 40 ppm, and voltage noise is 2.8 µV rms (0.1–10 Hz), confirming suitability for 16-bit+ data acquisition systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.048 V nominal; ±0.2% initial error (±4.096 mV) ensures ≤1 LSB error in 12-bit 2.048 V full-scale systems. |
| Tempco | ≤100 ppm/°C over −40°C to +125°C; adds ≤0.205 V drift across full range - critical for automotive sensor signal conditioning. |
| Operating Current | 50 µA to 15 mA; enables ultra-low-power wake-up reference use and high-current transient immunity in power supply monitors. |
| Voltage Noise | 2.8 µV rms (0.1–10 Hz); supports <16-bit ENOB in precision instrumentation front-ends without additional filtering. |
| Settling Time | 28 µs to 0.1% with no load; allows fast reference enable/disable in time-multiplexed ADC architectures. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.2 Ω; maintains <1 mV output shift under 1 mA load transients - essential for stable SAR ADC reference buffers. |
| Hysteresis | 40 ppm; limits repeatability error after thermal cycling in industrial control loop calibration. |
Pinout & Package
ADR5040AKSZ-R2 uses the 3-lead SC70 (KS-3) package: 1.35 mm × 0.89 mm × 0.40 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, JEDEC-compliant thin shrink outline. Pin 1 = V+, Pin 2 = V−, Pin 3 = T (thermal pad tied to V+ per datasheet Note 1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Anode / Input terminal | Connects to bias resistor; sinks current into reference core; must be ≥2.048 V for regulation. |
| V− | Cathode / Output terminal | Provides stable 2.048 V reference node; connects to load and feedback networks. |
| T | Thermal pad / V+ tie | Internally connected to V+; externally tied to V+ to improve thermal stability and power dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultracompact SC70 packaging | Enables placement in space-constrained modules like smart sensor nodes and wearables (<1.2 mm² footprint). |
| No external capacitor required | Eliminates BOM cost and layout risk while ensuring stability with any capacitive load up to 1 µF. |
| PIN-compatible with LM4040/LM4050 | Allows drop-in replacement in legacy designs without PCB revision - same pinout and biasing scheme. |
| Extended temperature range | Rated −40°C to +125°C; qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor drive applications. |
| Low 50 µA minimum current | Supports battery life extension in always-on monitoring circuits (e.g., gas meters, IoT edge sensors). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4040C20IDCKR | 2.048 V, ±0.5% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C, SOT-23-3; higher min current (60 µA), no SC70 option. | Lower accuracy limits use in >12-bit systems; lacks automotive qualification. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision needs and board space permits SOT-23. |
| ADR5040BKSZ-R2 | Same package and voltage; ±0.1% initial accuracy, 75 ppm/°C max tempco; tighter specs at higher cost. | Enables 14-bit system accuracy; preferred for calibrated test equipment and medical sensors. | Choose for upgraded precision without layout change - identical pinout and footprint. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating current for ADR5040AKSZ-R2?
The ADR5040AKSZ-R2 supports a maximum operating current of 15 mA, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This limit ensures safe junction temperature operation under worst-case ambient conditions and allows robust transient response in power supply monitor applications. Exceeding 15 mA risks permanent damage and voids reliability guarantees.
Is ADR5040AKSZ-R2 qualified for automotive use?
No, ADR5040AKSZ-R2 is not automotive-qualified. Only variants with "W" suffix (e.g., ADR5040WARTZ-R7) are AEC-Q100 qualified. The ADR5040AKSZ-R2 is rated for −40°C to +125°C operation but lacks the controlled manufacturing, extended reliability testing, and failure reporting required for automotive applications.
Can ADR5040AKSZ-R2 replace LM4040 in existing designs?
Yes, ADR5040AKSZ-R2 is explicitly pin-compatible with LM4040 and LM4050 devices. Its identical 3-pin SC70/SOT-23 footprint, same biasing topology, and compatible voltage range (2.048 V) allow direct substitution without PCB changes - provided the design accommodates its tighter initial accuracy and lower minimum current (50 µA vs. LM4040's 60 µA).
Does ADR5040AKSZ-R2 require an external capacitor for stability?
No, ADR5040AKSZ-R2 does not require an external capacitor for stability. Its internal design ensures unconditional stability with any capacitive load from 0 to 1 µF, eliminating the need for output bypassing and simplifying layout in noise-sensitive applications such as precision data acquisition systems.
What is the voltage noise specification of ADR5040AKSZ-R2?
The ADR5040AKSZ-R2 exhibits 2.8 µV rms voltage noise over the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz band and 120 µV rms from 10 Hz to 10 kHz. These values are measured at 100 µA operating current and directly impact effective resolution in high-precision ADC applications - for example, limiting achievable ENOB in 16-bit systems without additional filtering.
