Product details
Overview
LM4040B30H5TA from Diodes Incorporated is a precision 3.0V shunt voltage reference in SC70-5 package with ±0.2% initial tolerance at +25°C, 20ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +125°C, and stable operation from 60µA to 15mA reverse current - used for calibration and regulation in portable instrumentation and battery-powered data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM4040B30H5TA datasheet, LM4040B30H5TA pinout, LM4040B30H5TA application, or LM4040B30H5TA equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse breakdown voltage accuracy, low thermal drift, capacitive load stability, and compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts requiring high-precision analog references.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal bandgap-based shunt reference, regulating voltage by sinking variable current through its cathode-anode path. Its internal architecture maintains tight output voltage control without external capacitors and tolerates wide variations in supply current and load conditions.
It delivers 3.0V nominal reverse breakdown voltage with ±6mV (±0.2%) tolerance at +25°C, supports full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +125°C), and exhibits ≤100ppm/°C max tempco - enabling accurate voltage scaling in ADC/DAC biasing and sensor excitation circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 3.0V nominal reverse breakdown voltage at 100µA test current |
| Initial Tolerance | ±0.2% at +25°C - ensures <±6mV absolute error in factory-calibrated systems |
| Tempco (max) | 100ppm/°C over –40°C to +125°C - limits drift to ±30mV across full temperature range |
| Operating Current | 60µA to 15mA reverse current - supports ultra-low-power sleep modes and high-accuracy active regulation |
| Noise (10Hz–10kHz) | 35µVRMS - minimizes added uncertainty in high-resolution measurement front-ends |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.4Ω at 1mA - provides low AC impedance for stable feedback in precision regulators |
| Long-Term Stability | 120ppm after 1000 hours - enables reliable performance in unattended monitoring equipment |
Pinout & Package
SC70-5 package (end-of-life variant) with 5 terminals; pin 1 = Anode, pin 2 = Cathode, pins 3–5 = No Connect (N/C). Pin 2 must be left floating or connected to pin 1 per datasheet layout guidance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Reference ground node; connects to system GND or low-impedance return path |
| 2 | Cathode | Output node; sinks regulated current to maintain 3.0V across external load/resistor |
| 3 | N/C | No internal connection; must remain unconnected or tied to pin 2 per layout rules |
| 4 | N/C | No internal connection; electrically isolated from die; no routing required |
| 5 | N/C | No internal connection; unused terminal; avoid solder bridging or trace coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No output capacitor required | Stable regulation without external bypass - reduces BOM count and board area in compact designs |
| Low noise (35µVRMS) | Enables sub-16-bit ADC accuracy without additional filtering stages |
| Wide operating current range | 60µA minimum current allows use in µA-level standby power domains |
| Capacitive load tolerant | Immune to instability from PCB trace capacitance or nearby decoupling caps |
| Green, RoHS-compliant packaging | SOT23 and SC70-5 variants meet EU Directive 2015/863/EU halogen/antimony limits |
Applications
| Portable Instrumentation | Battery-Powered Equipment |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Handheld multimeter front-end voltage scaling and ADC reference. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt reference providing stable 3.0V reference for 24-bit sigma-delta ADC conversion.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4040B30FTA | SOT23 package (active production); identical electrical specs; pin-compatible but different footprint | Requires PCB redesign for SOT23 pad layout; eliminates EOL risk and improves supply continuity | Select when new design allows SOT23 placement and long-term sourcing is prioritized over legacy footprint reuse. |
| TLVH431BIDBZR | Adjustable 1.24V–18V shunt regulator; ±0.5% initial tolerance; higher 90ppm/°C tempco; requires two external resistors | Offers programmability but adds component count and resistor matching sensitivity | Choose only if voltage flexibility outweighs fixed-reference accuracy, noise, and simplicity advantages. |
Compared with LM4040B30H5TA, LM4040B30FTA removes EOL risk while preserving all electrical performance, whereas TLVH431BIDBZR trades precision and noise performance for adjustability - making the original part optimal for fixed 3.0V, low-noise, minimal-BOM applications.

FAQ
Is LM4040B30H5TA still in production?
No - LM4040B30H5TA is officially End-of-Life (EOL) per Diodes Incorporated's ordering information table. It remains available through authorized distributors' remaining inventory, but no new wafer fabrication or packaging is scheduled. Aetrix Electronics maintains traceable stock with full lot documentation for legacy design support.
Can LM4040B30H5TA be substituted with LM4040B30FTA on the same PCB?
No - LM4040B30FTA uses SOT23 (3-pin) packaging, while LM4040B30H5TA uses SC70-5 (5-pin) with different pin count, spacing, and thermal pad configuration. Direct PCB substitution requires layout revision. The SOT23 variant offers identical electrical performance and active production status.
What is the maximum capacitive load the device can drive without oscillation?
The LM4040B30H5TA is explicitly designed to be capacitive-load tolerant with no minimum or maximum specified limit in the datasheet. It remains stable with typical PCB trace capacitance and standard 0.1µF ceramic decoupling capacitors placed near the cathode, eliminating need for series resistance or isolation networks.
Does this part meet AEC-Q100 automotive qualification?
No - LM4040B30H5TA is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes offers the automotive-grade LM4040Q series (e.g., LM4040Q30IDBZR) with separate datasheet, extended reliability testing, and guaranteed operation over –40°C to +125°C with automotive PPAP support. This part is intended for industrial and commercial applications only.
