Product details
Overview
LM336BM-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision 5.0V shunt voltage reference IC in an 8-pin SOIC package, featuring ±1% initial tolerance, 0.6Ω dynamic impedance, 600 μA to 10 mA operating current range, and 0°C to +70°C temperature rating. It serves as a stable low-voltage reference for analog-to-digital converters, power supply feedback loops, and calibration circuits in industrial instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LM336BM-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM336BM-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM336BM-5.0/NOPB application, or LM336BM-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its trimmed temperature coefficient, low dynamic impedance, wide bias current range, and SOIC-8 compatibility with automated PCB assembly.
Technical Context
The LM336BM-5.0/NOPB operates as a two-terminal shunt regulator with a third terminal (ADJ) enabling precise trimming of both output voltage and temperature coefficient. Its monolithic construction integrates a bandgap-derived reference core with a low-impedance zener-like output stage.
Unlike standard zeners, it delivers stable 5.00V regulation across 600 μA–10 mA without external components, supports bidirectional polarity use, and achieves ≤12 mV temperature stability over 0°C to +70°C when adjusted to 5.00V per Figure 15 of SNVS750D.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 5.00 V nominal; guaranteed 4.90–5.10 V at 1 mA (LM336B grade), enabling accurate ADC reference scaling |
| Initial Tolerance | ±1% at 25°C; reduces system calibration burden in production test fixtures |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.6 Ω typical at 1 mA; maintains <1 mV output shift under 1 mA load transients |
| Operating Current | 600 μA to 10 mA; supports ultra-low-power sensor interfaces and high-current reference buffering |
| Temp Stability | ≤12 mV over 0°C to +70°C (LM336-5.0 grade); ensures <25 ppm/°C drift in untrimmed configurations |
| Temp Range | 0°C to +70°C ambient; matches commercial-grade microcontroller and data acquisition systems |
| Package | SOIC-8 (D package); compatible with standard surface-mount reflow profiles (Level-1-260°C-UNLIM) |
Pinout & Package
LM336BM-5.0/NOPB uses an 8-pin SOIC (D) package with 1.27 mm pitch, 3.91 mm width, and 4.90 mm length. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or notch; device height is ≤1.75 mm. Thermal resistance θJA = 165°C/W (0.125″ leads).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (ANODE) | Current sink input | Connects to regulated output node; reverse-biased during normal operation |
| Pin 2 (CATHODE) | Reference output | Provides stable 5.00V; must be decoupled with ≥100 nF capacitor for noise immunity |
| Pin 3 (ADJ) | Voltage/TC trim terminal | Enables adjustment of breakdown voltage (±1 V) and minimization of temperature coefficient via external potentiometer |
| Pins 4–8 | No-connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines to avoid parasitic coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adjustable reference range | 4 V to 6 V via ADJ pin-supports custom reference generation without discrete resistor networks |
| Low temperature coefficient | Minimized to <25 ppm/°C when trimmed to 5.00V-critical for high-accuracy measurement front-ends |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431ACDR | 2.5V adjustable reference; requires external resistors for 5V output; higher 0.2Ω typical dynamic impedance | Widely used in SMPS feedback; less suitable for precision metrology due to 2.5V base and resistor-induced errors | Select TL431ACDR only when cost sensitivity outweighs absolute accuracy needs and 2.5V base is acceptable |
| REF5050AIDR | 5.0V series reference; 3 V to 18 V input; 3 ppm/°C max drift; 10 µA quiescent current | Requires higher supply headroom; superior long-term stability but incompatible with shunt-based topologies | Choose REF5050AIDR for battery-powered systems needing ultra-low IQ and <5 ppm/°C drift, not for shunt-regulated designs |
Compared with TL431ACDR and REF5050AIDR, the LM336BM-5.0/NOPB uniquely combines fixed 5.0V output, shunt topology, SOIC-8 packaging, and trimmable temperature coefficient-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, and metrology-grade applications where external resistors or series architecture are undesirable.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating current for LM336BM-5.0/NOPB?
The LM336BM-5.0/NOPB supports a maximum operating current of 10 mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of SNVS750D. Exceeding this value risks exceeding the device's power dissipation limit in SOIC-8 packaging, potentially degrading long-term stability or causing thermal shutdown in sustained conditions. Always verify junction temperature using θJA = 165°C/W when designing for continuous 10 mA operation.
Can LM336BM-5.0/NOPB be used as a negative voltage reference?
Yes, LM336BM-5.0/NOPB can function as a negative voltage reference by reversing its anode and cathode connections relative to ground-leveraging its inherent shunt regulator architecture. When configured this way, Pin 2 (CATHODE) becomes the negative reference output (–5.00V), and Pin 1 (ANODE) connects to ground. The ADJ pin remains functional for trimming, and all electrical specifications-including dynamic impedance and temperature stability-apply identically in inverted polarity.
How do I minimize temperature drift when using LM336BM-5.0/NOPB?
To minimize temperature drift, adjust the LM336BM-5.0/NOPB to exactly 5.00V at 25°C using the ADJ pin and a 10 kΩ potentiometer per Figure 15 in SNVS750D, then add four silicon signal diodes (e.g., 1N4148) in series with the pot. Mount these diodes thermally adjacent to the LM336BM-5.0/NOPB on the PCB. This configuration reduces drift to <25 ppm/°C, significantly improving stability over the 0°C to +70°C range compared to untrimmed operation.
Is LM336BM-5.0/NOPB RoHS compliant?
Yes, LM336BM-5.0/NOPB is RoHS compliant, as confirmed in TI's Package Option Addendum where "RoHS" is marked "Yes" for this orderable part number. It uses Sn (tin) lead finish and meets JEDEC Level-1 moisture sensitivity requirements with peak reflow at 260°C. Full compliance documentation, including substance declarations and test reports, is accessible via TI's Quality & Environmental Information portal using the LM336BM-5.0/NOPB part number.
What is the purpose of Pins 4–8 on LM336BM-5.0/NOPB?
Pins 4–8 on LM336BM-5.0/NOPB are no-connect (NC) terminals with no internal connection to the die. They must remain electrically floating in the circuit layout; grounding or routing signals to them may introduce parasitic capacitance or leakage paths that degrade reference accuracy or noise performance. TI's SOIC-8 package drawing D0008A explicitly defines these pins as NC, and the device functions identically whether they are left unpopulated or soldered to unused copper areas.
