Product details
Overview
ADR5041BKSZ-R2 from Analog Devices is a precision 2.5 V shunt voltage reference in SC70-3 package, featuring ±0.1% initial accuracy, 75 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and stable operation from 50 µA to 15 mA supply current. It serves as a high-stability voltage reference for ADC/DAC biasing, sensor excitation, and portable power monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the ADR5041BKSZ-R2 datasheet, ADR5041BKSZ-R2 pinout, ADR5041BKSZ-R2 application, or ADR5041BKSZ-R2 equivalent, key selection criteria include low operating current, automotive-grade temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), ultrasmall SC70 footprint, and capacitor-free stability with any capacitive load.
Technical Context
The ADR5041BKSZ-R2 implements a bandgap-based shunt architecture that cancels intrinsic transistor VBE temperature drift via curvature-compensated current summation. Its output remains stable without external compensation capacitors across 0–1 µF load capacitance.
It operates as a two-terminal device requiring only an external bias resistor, delivering 2.5 V with 40 ppm hysteresis and 35 µs turn-on settling time. The design supports stacking for higher or negative reference voltages while maintaining traceable thermal performance over −40°C to +125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.500 V ±2.5 mV at 100 µA - enables 12-bit+ accuracy in 2.5 V-referenced data converters |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.1% - corresponds to ±2.5 mV error, sufficient for precision instrumentation calibration |
| Temp Coefficient | ≤75 ppm/°C - contributes ≤188 µV drift over −40°C to +125°C span |
| Operating Current | 50 µA to 15 mA - supports ultra-low-power battery operation and high-current stability |
| Settling Time | 35 µs (CLOAD = 0) - allows fast power-up in duty-cycled sensor systems |
| Voltage Noise | 3.2 µVrms (0.1–10 Hz), 150 µVrms (10 Hz–10 kHz) - suitable for 16-bit SAR ADC reference |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.2 Ω - minimizes load-induced voltage shift during transient current demand |
Pinout & Package
ADR5041BKSZ-R2 uses the 3-lead SC70 (KS-3) package per JEDEC MO-203AA, measuring 2.20 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.95 mm with 0.65 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 is V+, Pin 2 is V−, Pin 3 is T (thermal pad connection point, recommended to connect to V+).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Anode / Reference Output Terminal | Provides 2.5 V output; must be biased above cathode by external resistor to sustain regulation |
| V− | Cathode / Ground Reference Terminal | Serves as return path; connects to system ground or negative rail in floating configurations |
| T | Thermal Pad / Optional V+ Tie | Not electrically active; improves thermal dissipation when soldered to copper pour or connected to V+ |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external capacitor required | Stable with 0–1 µF capacitive loads - eliminates BOM cost and layout area for decoupling |
| PIN-compatible with LM4040/LM4050 | Direct drop-in replacement in existing SOT-23/SC70 shunt reference designs - no PCB rework needed |
| Extended temperature range | Specified from −40°C to +125°C - supports under-hood automotive and industrial edge sensing |
| Low quiescent current | 50 µA minimum operating current - extends battery life in portable gas meters and handheld test equipment |
| Ultracompact SC70 package | 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm footprint - saves >50% board space vs. standard SOT-23 in space-constrained wearables |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Automotive Cabin Pressure Monitoring |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4040C25IDCKR | ±0.5% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C TC, 2.5 V, SC70-3 | Lower accuracy limits use in 14-bit+ systems; wider TC increases drift in wide-temp environments | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision requirements and ambient range stays within 0°C–70°C |
| ADR5041ARTZ-REEL7 | Same 2.5 V, ±0.1%, 75 ppm/°C specs but in SOT-23-3 (RT-3) package | Larger 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm footprint; higher θJA (270°C/W vs. 580.5°C/W) reduces thermal margin | Choose for legacy SOT-23 assembly lines or where thermal mass aids stability in high-pulse-load scenarios |
Compared with LM4040C25IDCKR and ADR5041ARTZ-REEL7, the ADR5041BKSZ-R2 delivers superior initial accuracy and tighter temperature coefficient in the smallest available footprint, making it optimal for next-generation portable and automotive systems where board space and parametric performance are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating current for ADR5041BKSZ-R2?
The ADR5041BKSZ-R2 supports a maximum operating current of 15 mA, verified across −40°C to +125°C. This allows robust regulation under high-load conditions such as driving multiple op amps or charging sample-and-hold capacitors. Exceeding 15 mA risks exceeding absolute maximum ratings and may cause irreversible damage to the internal bandgap core.
Does ADR5041BKSZ-R2 require an external capacitor for stability?
No, the ADR5041BKSZ-R2 does not require an external capacitor for stability. Its internal design ensures unconditional stability with any capacitive load from 0 µF to 1 µF, as confirmed in the datasheet's Figure 14 and Applications Information section. Adding a capacitor may reduce high-frequency noise but is never necessary for loop stability.
Is ADR5041BKSZ-R2 qualified for automotive applications?
No, ADR5041BKSZ-R2 is not automotive-qualified. Only variants with "W" suffix (e.g., ADR5041WBRTZ-R7) are AEC-Q100 qualified and manufactured under automotive-specific process controls. The ADR5041BKSZ-R2 is rated for −40°C to +125°C operation but lacks automotive reliability reporting and controlled lot traceability.
What is the purpose of the T pin on ADR5041BKSZ-R2?
The T pin on ADR5041BKSZ-R2 is a thermal pad with no electrical function. Per datasheet Note 1, it is recommended to connect this pin to V+ to improve thermal conduction and reduce junction temperature rise under sustained 15 mA operation. It must not be left floating in high-power-density layouts.
Can ADR5041BKSZ-R2 be used to generate a negative reference voltage?
Yes, ADR5041BKSZ-R2 can configure a precise negative reference by reversing its terminal connections: connect V− to system ground and V+ to a negative supply rail, then route the regulated 2.5 V output from V− relative to the negative rail. Figure 20 in the datasheet confirms this topology, noting that resistor temperature coefficient must be minimized to preserve accuracy.
