Product details
Overview
ADR5043AKSZ-R2 from Analog Devices is a precision 3.0 V shunt voltage reference in SC70-3 package, delivering ±0.2% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and stable operation from 50 µA to 15 mA supply current - used in high-resolution ADC biasing, portable instrumentation, and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the ADR5043AKSZ-R2 datasheet, ADR5043AKSZ-R2 pinout, ADR5043AKSZ-R2 application, or ADR5043AKSZ-R2 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, validated pin functions, real-world use cases in battery-powered and automotive systems, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented performance trade-offs.
Technical Context
The ADR5043AKSZ-R2 implements a bandgap-based shunt reference architecture with zero external capacitor requirement and guaranteed stability across capacitive loads. Its output voltage is trimmed at wafer level for ±0.2% initial accuracy and characterized over −40°C to +125°C.
It operates as a two-terminal device requiring only an external bias resistor (RBIAS) to set operating current; dynamic output impedance remains ≤0.2 Ω across 50 µA–15 mA, enabling fast settling (42 µs) and low hysteresis (40 ppm).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.000 V nominal at 100 µA; min/max 2.994 V / 3.006 V ensures tight tolerance for 12-bit+ data acquisition systems. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.2% (±6 mV); enables direct use in precision DAC/ADC reference without calibration in industrial sensors. |
| Temp Coefficient | ≤100 ppm/°C over −40°C to +125°C; supports stable performance in under-hood automotive modules. |
| Operating Current | 50 µA to 15 mA; allows ultra-low-power sleep mode (50 µA) and robust drive capability (15 mA) in same design. |
| Turn-On Settling | 42 µs to 0.1% with no load; eliminates delay in wake-up sequences for battery-powered IoT nodes. |
| Voltage Noise | 4.3 µVrms (0.1–10 Hz); low enough for 16-bit SAR ADC reference without additional filtering. |
| Dynamic Impedance | ≤0.2 Ω; maintains regulation during fast load transients in switched-mode power monitor circuits. |
Pinout & Package
ADR5043AKSZ-R2 uses the 3-lead SC70 (KS-3) package: 1.10 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.40 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, JEDEC-compliant thin shrink outline.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (V+) | Anode / Reference Output | Connects to regulated 3.0 V output node; sinks current from bias resistor and supplies load. |
| Pin 2 (V−) | Cathode / Ground Reference | Return path for shunt current; must be tied to system ground or low-impedance return plane. |
| Pin 3 (T) | Thermal Pad / Optional Tie | Recommended connection to V+ for thermal stability; not electrically active but improves thermal hysteresis. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external capacitor required | Stable with any capacitive load up to 1 µF - simplifies layout and eliminates risk of oscillation in space-constrained PCBs. |
| Ultracompact SC70 package | 1.10 mm × 1.35 mm footprint - fits in wearables, medical patches, and automotive ECUs where board area is < 2 mm². |
| Extended temperature range | −40°C to +125°C operation - qualified for engine control units, battery management, and industrial field transmitters. |
| Pin compatible with LM4040/LM4050 | Direct drop-in replacement in legacy designs using 3-pin SOT-23 shunt references - no layout change needed. |
| Low 50 µA minimum current | Enables >10-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes powered by coin cells or energy harvesters. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR5043BKSZ-R2 | ±0.1% initial accuracy (vs. ±0.2%), same 100 ppm/°C TC, identical SC70-3 package and pinout. | Better accuracy enables higher-grade metrology or calibration equipment; no change in layout or bias network. | Select when tighter initial tolerance is required without altering system design or cost target. |
| LM4040C30IDCKR | ±0.5% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C TC, same SC70-3 package and pinout, but higher 75 µA min current. | Lower accuracy and higher minimum current limit use in ultra-low-power or high-precision applications. | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where ±0.5% tolerance and reduced quiescent current margin are acceptable. |
Compared with ADR5043AKSZ-R2, ADR5043BKSZ-R2 delivers 2× better initial accuracy at same price point and form factor, while LM4040C30IDCKR offers broader vendor availability but sacrifices 2.5× accuracy and adds 50% minimum current overhead.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of ADR5043AKSZ-R2 at 25°C?
The ADR5043AKSZ-R2 has a nominal output voltage of 3.000 V with a guaranteed tolerance of ±0.2% (±6 mV) at 100 µA operating current and 25°C. This corresponds to a min/max range of 2.994 V to 3.006 V per the A-grade specification in Table 4 of the Rev. E datasheet.
Does ADR5043AKSZ-R2 require an external capacitor for stability?
No, ADR5043AKSZ-R2 does not require an external capacitor for stability. Its internal design ensures unconditional stability with any capacitive load up to 1 µF, as confirmed in the Applications Information section and Figure 14/17 of the datasheet.
What is the minimum operating current for ADR5043AKSZ-R2 across temperature?
The minimum operating current for ADR5043AKSZ-R2 is 50 µA at 25°C and increases to 60 µA across the full −40°C to +125°C range, as specified in Table 4 under "MINIMUM OPERATING CURRENT" with test condition "−40°C < TA < +125°C".
Is ADR5043AKSZ-R2 qualified for automotive applications?
No, ADR5043AKSZ-R2 is not automotive-qualified. The automotive-grade variant is ADR5043WARTZ-R7 (SOT-23-3) or ADR5043WBRTZ-R7. ADR5043AKSZ-R2 is rated for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) but lacks AEC-Q200 qualification and automotive-specific reliability testing.
How does the thermal pad (Pin 3) affect ADR5043AKSZ-R2 performance?
Pin 3 (T) is a thermal pad recommended for connection to V+ to improve thermal hysteresis and long-term stability. Though not electrically active, tying it to the anode reduces mechanical stress-induced voltage drift - a key factor in precision applications per datasheet Note 1 and Figure 2/5 characterization.
