Product details
Overview
LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is an ultra-high precision shunt voltage reference delivering 2.5 V output with ±0.15% initial accuracy (C-grade), 30 ppm/°C temperature coefficient over −40°C to +125°C, and 75 ppm thermal hysteresis - used in high-resolution ADC biasing, precision sensor excitation, and calibration-critical industrial data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB datasheet, LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB pinout, LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB application, or LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping, confirmed SOT-23-5 terminal roles, grade-specific stability metrics, and real-world design implications for low-drift analog signal chains.
Technical Context
The LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB operates as a two-terminal shunt reference requiring only a series current-setting resistor (RZ) and optionally a bypass capacitor (COUT ≤10 µF). Its regulation relies on internal bandgap-derived Zener-like breakdown at precisely 2.5 V, with dynamic offset cancellation minimizing drift from PCB stress and thermal cycling.
It exhibits reverse dynamic impedance inversely proportional to shunt current (e.g., ~0.3 Ω at 10 mA), enabling high PSRR against supply ripple and EMI. The device sustains continuous 30 mA shunt current and handles 50 mA transients while consuming as little as 120 µA minimum operating current.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage tolerance of LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB at 25°C?
The LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB is the C-grade variant with ±0.15% initial accuracy at 25°C, corresponding to a guaranteed output voltage range of 2.49625 V to 2.50375 V when tested at TJ = 25°C with ISHUNT = 120 µA. This tolerance is production-tested and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the SNVS552B datasheet.
Does LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB require an external capacitor to operate stably?
No, the LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB is internally compensated and operates stably without any external capacitor. A bypass capacitor (COUT) up to 10 µF may be added to improve transient response and reduce broadband noise, but it is optional - not required for basic regulation functionality.
What is the maximum continuous shunt current rating for LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB?
The LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB supports a maximum continuous shunt current of 30 mA, as specified in the Operating Ratings section. Exceeding this limit risks exceeding the 350 mW absolute maximum power dissipation (at TA = 25°C) and may cause thermal shutdown or long-term reliability degradation.
How does thermal hysteresis impact system calibration when using LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB?
Thermal hysteresis of 75 ppm means the LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB's output voltage at 25°C may shift by up to ±0.188 mV after cycling between −40°C and +125°C eight times. In calibration-critical systems, this limits repeatability unless compensated - making it essential for metrology-grade instruments to perform post-thermal-cycle recalibration if sub-100 ppm accuracy is required.
Can LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB be used in place of LM4030AMFX-2.5/NOPB in a new design?
Yes, the LM4030CMFX-2.5/NOPB is pin-compatible and functionally identical to the A- and B-grade variants, differing only in initial accuracy (±0.15% vs ±0.05%/±0.10%) and temperature coefficient (30 ppm/°C vs 10/20 ppm/°C). It can be substituted directly, but system-level accuracy verification is required to confirm suitability for the target application's drift budget.
