Product details
Overview
ADR5041ARTZ-R2 from Analog Devices is a precision 2.5 V shunt voltage reference in a 3-lead SOT-23 (RT-3) package, designed for high-accuracy analog signal conditioning and data acquisition. It delivers ±0.1% initial accuracy, 75 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, 35 µs turn-on settling time, and operates from 50 µA to 15 mA over −40°C to +125°C - enabling use in automotive sensor interfaces and portable medical monitors.
For engineers reviewing the ADR5041ARTZ-R2 datasheet, ADR5041ARTZ-R2 pinout, ADR5041ARTZ-R2 application, or ADR5041ARTZ-R2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultralow operating current, no-external-capacitor stability, automotive qualification (per ADR5041W variant), and compatibility with LM4040/LM4050-based designs requiring improved accuracy and thermal performance.
Technical Context
The ADR5041ARTZ-R2 implements a bandgap-based shunt reference architecture optimized for low drift and fast transient response. Its output voltage is stabilized using curvature-compensated core circuitry, achieving 75 ppm/°C max TC over −40°C to +125°C while maintaining 0.2 Ω dynamic output impedance across 50 µA–15 mA operating current.
It requires only an external bias resistor for operation and remains stable with any capacitive load - eliminating need for output compensation. The device supports stacking for higher-voltage references and configurable negative-output topologies via external resistor networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.500 V ±0.1% at 100 µA - enables direct interface with 12-bit ADCs without gain calibration |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.1% (Grade B) - reduces system-level offset error in precision instrumentation front-ends |
| Temp. Coefficient | 75 ppm/°C max (−40°C to +125°C) - ensures <±0.2 mV drift over full automotive temperature range |
| Operating Current | 50 µA to 15 mA - supports ultra-low-power battery operation and high-current sensing circuits |
| Turn-On Settling | 35 µs (CLOAD = 0 µF) - meets timing requirements for fast-sampling data loggers and burst-mode systems |
| Voltage Noise | 3.2 µV rms (0.1–10 Hz), 150 µV rms (10 Hz–10 kHz) - preserves SNR in low-frequency sensor signal chains |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.2 Ω - minimizes load-induced output variation in multipoint reference distribution |
Pinout & Package
ADR5041ARTZ-R2 is housed in a 3-lead SOT-23 (RT-3) package per JEDEC TO-236-AB, with 1.30 mm × 2.10 mm footprint and 0.95 mm height. Pin 3 (T) must be connected to V+ per datasheet recommendation for optimal thermal stability.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4040C25IDBZR | ±0.5% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C TC, 60 µA min current - lower precision, wider tolerance | Cost-sensitive consumer electronics where ±1 LSB ADC error is acceptable | Select when budget constraints outweigh accuracy needs; verify thermal hysteresis impact on calibration stability |
| ADR5041BRTZ-REEL7 | Identical electrical specs and packaging; differs only in reel quantity (7,000 vs. 250) and tape-and-reel marking | Same functional use case - volume production requiring standard 7k-reel logistics | Choose for high-volume manufacturing; ADR5041ARTZ-R2 is functionally identical but supplied in smaller reels |
Compared with LM4040C25IDBZR, ADR5041ARTZ-R2 delivers 5× tighter initial accuracy and 30% lower tempco - justifying premium cost in metrology-critical systems. Against ADR5041BRTZ-REEL7, it offers identical performance with optimized small-batch availability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating current for ADR5041ARTZ-R2?
The absolute maximum reverse current rating for ADR5041ARTZ-R2 is 25 mA per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. However, the recommended maximum operating current is 15 mA - beyond which voltage regulation degrades and long-term reliability may be compromised. Operation at 15 mA is fully characterized and supported across −40°C to +125°C.
Is ADR5041ARTZ-R2 qualified for automotive applications?
ADR5041ARTZ-R2 itself is not automotive-qualified; however, the pin- and function-compatible ADR5041WARTZ-R7 variant is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified. ADR5041ARTZ-R2 shares identical electrical specifications and package but lacks the controlled manufacturing flow and extended reliability testing required for automotive use.
Does ADR5041ARTZ-R2 require an external capacitor for stability?
No, ADR5041ARTZ-R2 does not require an external capacitor for stability. Its internal design ensures unconditional stability with any capacitive load, including 0 µF to 1 µF. Adding a bypass capacitor on the supply rail is permissible but unnecessary for reference stability - simplifying layout and reducing BOM count.
How is the thermal terminal (Pin 3) used in ADR5041ARTZ-R2?
Pin 3 (T) of ADR5041ARTZ-R2 is a thermal compensation terminal that must be connected directly to V+ (Pin 1) to minimize thermal hysteresis and optimize long-term stability. Leaving Pin 3 floating or connecting it elsewhere invalidates the specified 40 ppm hysteresis performance and increases output drift during temperature cycling.
Can ADR5041ARTZ-R2 be used to generate a negative reference voltage?
Yes, ADR5041ARTZ-R2 can configure a precise negative reference by reversing its connection: connect Pin 2 (V−) to the negative rail and Pin 1 (V+) to the load, with Pin 3 tied to the same negative rail. This topology yields −2.5 V output referenced to system ground - validated in the Applications Information section for precision negative voltage generation.
