Product details

Overview

LM4040BIX3-5.0-T from Maxim Integrated is a precision 5.000V two-terminal shunt voltage reference in SC70-3 package, featuring 0.2% initial accuracy, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and stable operation from -40°C to +125°C. It delivers low dynamic impedance (≤0.8Ω), 80µVRMS wideband noise (10Hz–10kHz), and operates across 60μA–15mA shunt current - ideal for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing and portable power management.

For engineers reviewing the LM4040BIX3-5.0-T datasheet, LM4040BIX3-5.0-T pinout, LM4040BIX3-5.0-T application, or LM4040BIX3-5.0-T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed extended-temperature performance, no-output-capacitor stability, subminiature footprint compatibility with space-constrained PCBs, and direct replacement capability for legacy 5V shunt references requiring ≤0.2% tolerance.

Technical Context

The LM4040BIX3-5.0-T uses bandgap-based shunt regulation to maintain a precise 5.000V reverse breakdown voltage across its cathode-anode terminals. Its laser-trimmed internal resistor network ensures 0.2% initial accuracy at +25°C, with temperature drift bounded by ±100ppm/°C over -40°C to +125°C.

It functions as a two-terminal device requiring only an external series resistor to set operating current, supports capacitive loads without instability, and achieves low 0.8Ω dynamic impedance at 1mA - enabling stable reference generation under varying load and supply conditions in battery-powered and industrial systems.

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
TLVH431ACDBVR3-terminal adjustable shunt regulator; 2.5V–36V programmable output; 0.5% initial accuracy; requires external resistorsNot drop-in - needs redesign of feedback network; better for variable-voltage or higher-voltage (>5V) use casesSelect when output voltage flexibility or >5V reference is required; avoid if fixed 5.000V and minimal component count are mandatory
ADR3450ARJZ-R73-terminal series reference; 5.000V output; 0.1% initial accuracy; 3ppm/°C tempco; higher quiescent current (120µA min)Series architecture - requires dedicated input supply rail; not compatible with shunt-based topologiesChoose for ultra-low-drift applications where series topology fits the power architecture; not suitable for simple resistor-biased shunt circuits

Compared with TLVH431ACDBVR and ADR3450ARJZ-R7, the LM4040BIX3-5.0-T offers true two-terminal simplicity, lowest board-area footprint, and optimal trade-off between accuracy (0.2%), temperature stability (±100ppm/°C), and micropower operation - making it the preferred choice for fixed 5V shunt reference implementations in space- and current-constrained designs.

FAQ

What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for LM4040BIX3-5.0-T?

The LM4040BIX3-5.0-T is specified and guaranteed over -40°C to +125°C. This extended temperature range is confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Absolute Maximum Ratings section of the official Maxim datasheet, and applies specifically to the "E" grade (industrial/automotive) variant packaged in SC70-3 - which matches the "EX3" suffix in LM4040BIX3-5.0-T.

Does LM4040BIX3-5.0-T require an external output capacitor for stability?

No, the LM4040BIX3-5.0-T does not require an external output capacitor. The datasheet explicitly states "No Output Capacitors Required" and confirms stability with any capacitive load - a key advantage of its internal bandgap design and low dynamic impedance. This eliminates layout sensitivity and reduces BOM count in compact designs.

What is the minimum shunt current needed for LM4040BIX3-5.0-T to regulate properly?

The LM4040BIX3-5.0-T requires a minimum shunt current of 60μA to maintain regulation. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table for the 5.000V version under "Minimum Operating Current" (IRMIN) and is consistent across all accuracy grades (A/B/C/D) for this output voltage and package.

How does the pin configuration of LM4040BIX3-5.0-T differ from standard 3-pin SOT23 references?

The LM4040BIX3-5.0-T uses a 3-pin SC70 package with pin 1 = Cathode (+), pin 2 = Anode (–), and pin 3 = N.C. Unlike many 3-terminal regulators, pin 3 has no internal connection and must be left unconnected or tied to pin 2 - a critical distinction that prevents misrouting in layout and avoids potential damage from unintended biasing.

What is the wideband noise specification for LM4040BIX3-5.0-T, and how is it measured?

The LM4040BIX3-5.0-T exhibits 80µVRMS wideband noise over 10Hz to 10kHz, as measured at IR = 100µA per the Electrical Characteristics table for the 5.000V version. This value reflects total integrated RMS noise and directly impacts signal-chain SNR in precision ADC/DAC applications - especially where low-noise analog front-ends are required.
