Product details
Overview
LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is an ultra-high precision 2.5 V shunt voltage reference in SOT-23-5 package, delivering 0.15% initial accuracy, 30 ppm/°C temperature coefficient over −40°C to +125°C, and 75 ppm thermal hysteresis - designed for high-stability analog signal chains in data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB datasheet, LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB pinout, LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB application, or LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed long-term stability (40 ppm), low noise (105 µVPP, 0.1–10 Hz), and operation down to 120 µA with up to 30 mA continuous shunt current.
Technical Context
The LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB operates as a two-terminal shunt reference requiring only an external series resistor (RZ) to set operating current. Its regulation loop employs dynamic offset cancellation to suppress drift from board stress and thermal cycling.
It exhibits exceptionally low reverse breakdown voltage change with current (25 ppm/mA typical) and stable reverse dynamic impedance across frequency, enabling robust performance in noisy supply environments without mandatory bypass capacitance - though stable with up to 10 µF.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.5 V nominal; fixed, non-adjustable reference voltage for precision ADC/DAC biasing and sensor excitation. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.15% (Grade C); ensures ≤ ±3.75 mV absolute error at 25°C, critical for 12-bit+ system calibration. |
| Temp Coefficient | 30 ppm/°C (−40°C to +125°C); contributes ≤ ±90 ppm (±0.225 mV) max drift across full industrial range. |
| Long-Term Stability | 40 ppm (1000 hrs @ 30°C); limits aging-induced error to < ±0.1 mV over one year under typical conditions. |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 75 ppm (−40°C ↔ +125°C ×8 cycles); guarantees ≤ ±0.188 mV repeatability after extreme temperature excursions. |
| Min Operating Current | 120 µA; enables ultra-low-power reference operation in battery-backed or energy-harvesting systems. |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 105 µVPP; supports high-resolution measurements where sub-LSB noise is essential (e.g., 16-bit 2.5 V full-scale). |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.45 mm body, gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant matte tin lead finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No-connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating per datasheet - no routing or grounding allowed. |
| 2 | GND or NC | Functional ground connection; if used as GND, provides reference return path; if unused, leave floating. |
| 3 | No-connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating - not a test pad or auxiliary function. |
| 4 | VREF | Reference output terminal; connects to load and feedback node; requires low-impedance layout to minimize IR drop. |
| 5 | GND | Dedicated ground terminal; must be tied to system ground plane with minimal trace inductance for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low thermal hysteresis | 75 ppm over −40°C to +125°C cycling - preserves calibration integrity in field-deployed industrial sensors. |
| High immunity to PCB stress | Dynamic offset cancellation architecture minimizes VREF shift caused by solder joint strain or board flexure. |
| Capacitor-free operation | Stable without external COUT; optional 0–10 µF capacitor improves transient response and broadband noise rejection. |
| Wide shunt current range | Operates from 120 µA to 30 mA - supports both ultra-low-power standby and high-current precision DAC buffering. |
| Robust transient handling | Withstands 50 mA transients (<1 s) - protects against load switching surges in automated test equipment. |

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 | 2.5 V, ±0.5% initial accuracy, 100 ppm/°C TC, SOT-23-3; higher drift, looser tolerance, no Grade C equivalent. | Lower-cost option for 12-bit systems where ±12.5 mV error is acceptable; lacks thermal hysteresis spec. | Select when budget constraints outweigh precision needs and long-term stability is non-critical. |
| REF3025AIDBZR | 2.5 V, ±0.2% initial accuracy, 50 ppm/°C TC, SOT-23-3; series topology, requires minimum load current, higher quiescent power. | Suitable for low-noise LDO-like configurations but incompatible with shunt-based topologies requiring zero-load current capability. | Choose only if system architecture mandates series reference and can support ≥100 µA load current. |
Compared with LM4040C25IDBZR and REF3025AIDBZR, the LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB delivers superior initial accuracy (±0.15% vs ±0.5%/±0.2%), lower thermal hysteresis (75 ppm vs uncharacterized), and true zero-load operation - making it uniquely suited for high-reliability, wide-temperature, low-power shunt reference designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous shunt current rating for LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB?
The LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB supports a maximum continuous shunt current of 30 mA. This rating is specified across the full operating junction temperature range of −40°C to +125°C and defines the upper limit for steady-state current sinking capability without derating. Transient currents up to 50 mA are permitted for durations under 1 second.
Does LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB require an external capacitor to operate stably?
No, the LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB is designed to operate stably without any external capacitor. It remains functional and well-regulated from 120 µA to 30 mA with no added capacitance. However, a bypass capacitor up to 10 µF may be added at the VREF pin to improve transient response and reduce broadband noise - placement must be adjacent to the device.
What does the 'C' grade signify in LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB?
The 'C' in LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB denotes Grade C performance: ±0.15% initial accuracy at 25°C and a temperature coefficient of 30 ppm/°C over −40°C to +125°C. This grade offers the broadest tolerance and highest TC within the LM4030 family, optimized for cost-sensitive industrial applications where moderate precision suffices.
How is thermal hysteresis specified for LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB?
Thermal hysteresis for LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB is specified as 75 ppm, measured as the change in output voltage at +25°C before and after eight complete thermal cycles between −40°C and +125°C. This value reflects real-world repeatability after environmental stress and is guaranteed for Grade C devices per the SNVS552B datasheet.
Can LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB be used in place of LM4030AMF-2.5/NOPB?
Yes, the LM4030CMF-2.5/NOPB is pin-compatible and functionally identical to the LM4030AMF-2.5/NOPB except for reduced precision: Grade C offers ±0.15% initial accuracy and 30 ppm/°C TC versus Grade A's ±0.05% and 10 ppm/°C. Substitution is valid where tighter specifications are not required, but recalibration may be needed in metrology-grade systems.
