Product details
Overview
LM4040C82ILPR from Texas Instruments is a precision micropower shunt voltage reference with 8.192V nominal output, ±0.5% initial accuracy (C grade), 100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 35μVRMS wideband noise, and stable operation from 45μA to 15mA cathode current. It serves as a compact, low-drift reference in analog signal chains for industrial data acquisition and field transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the LM4040C82ILPR datasheet, LM4040C82ILPR pinout, LM4040C82ILPR application, or LM4040C82ILPR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8.192V fixed output, SOT-23-3 package compatibility, –40°C to 85°C operating range, and absence of required output capacitance in high-impedance sensing nodes.
Technical Context
The LM4040C82ILPR operates as a two-terminal shunt reference, sinking cathode current to maintain a precise 8.192V reverse breakdown voltage across its terminals. Its Zener-zap trimmed silicon design achieves 0.5% initial tolerance and 100ppm/°C thermal drift over –40°C to 85°C without external compensation.
It delivers low dynamic impedance (≤0.9Ω at 1mA) and low noise (35μVRMS, 10Hz–10kHz), enabling high-resolution ADC biasing and sensor excitation where supply rejection and long-term stability are critical. No output capacitor is required, simplifying layout in space-constrained portable and industrial modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 8.192V nominal; enables precise scaling for 13-bit+ SAR ADCs using binary-aligned references. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.5% at 25°C; ensures ≤±41mV absolute error before thermal drift correction. |
| Temp Coefficient | 100ppm/°C max; contributes ≤±8.2mV drift over full –40°C to 85°C range. |
| Operating Current | 45μA to 15mA; supports ultra-low-power sensor nodes and high-current DAC references. |
| Output Noise | 35μVRMS (10Hz–10kHz); avoids noise-induced quantization errors in 16-bit+ measurement systems. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.9Ω typical at 1mA; maintains regulation under fast load transients in closed-loop feedback paths. |
Pinout & Package

|---|---|---|
| Cathode (Pin 1) | Shunt current input | Connects to regulated voltage node; sinks current to establish 8.192V reference potential. |
| Anode (Pin 2) | Common ground reference | Must be tied to system ground; defines return path for cathode current and sets reference zero point. |
| NC (Pin 3) | No internal connection | Float or tie to anode only in high-EMI environments; no functional role in standard operation. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL4050C82IDBZR | Same 8.192V output, ±0.5% tolerance, but higher 50ppm/°C tempco and 40μA min current. | Lower noise (20μVRMS) suits audio-grade references; tighter tempco benefits narrow-temp-range consumer gear. | Select TL4050C82IDBZR when lower noise and tighter thermal drift outweigh LM4040C82ILPR's broader current range. |
| MAX6008AEUR+T | 8.192V output, ±0.2% initial accuracy (A grade), 75ppm/°C tempco, 60μA min current. | Higher accuracy enables single-point calibration in test equipment; smaller SC70-3 footprint saves board area. | Choose MAX6008AEUR+T for metrology-grade instruments requiring <±0.3% total error without trimming. |
Compared with TL4050C82IDBZR and MAX6008AEUR+T, the LM4040C82ILPR offers the widest operating current range (45μA–15mA) and highest noise immunity in EMI-prone industrial settings, making it optimal for ruggedized field instrumentation where layout constraints prevent shielding.

FAQ
What is the maximum cathode current rating for LM4040C82ILPR?
The LM4040C82ILPR has an absolute maximum cathode current rating of 25mA per its datasheet Absolute Maximum Ratings table. However, the recommended operating condition specifies a maximum cathode current of 15mA to ensure stable regulation, thermal performance, and long-term reliability. Exceeding 15mA may increase junction temperature beyond safe limits and accelerate parametric drift in the LM4040C82ILPR.
Does LM4040C82ILPR require an external output capacitor?
No, the LM4040C82ILPR does not require an external output capacitor. Its internal design provides inherent stability with all capacitive loads, including direct connection to ADC reference inputs or op-amp feedback networks. This eliminates capacitor-related aging, leakage, and layout sensitivity-key advantages confirmed in the LM4040C82ILPR datasheet Section 3 and Figure 8-2.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for LM4040C82ILPR?
The LM4040C82ILPR exhibits 0.08% thermal hysteresis, defined as the voltage difference measured at 25°C after cycling to –40°C versus after cycling to 125°C. This value is consistent across all LM4040 grades and packages, and is explicitly specified in Table 6-5 through 6-22 of the LM4040C82ILPR datasheet for both industrial and extended temperature variants.
Can LM4040C82ILPR operate at –40°C to 125°C?
No, the LM4040C82ILPR is rated for operation from –40°C to 85°C only. The 'I' suffix in the part number denotes the industrial temperature grade. For –40°C to 125°C operation, TI offers the LM4040C82Q variant (e.g., LM4040C82QDBZR), which shares identical electrical specifications except for the extended temperature qualification and different ordering part number.
What is the long-term stability of LM4040C82ILPR after 1000 hours?
The LM4040C82ILPR demonstrates 120ppm long-term stability after 1000 hours of operation at 25°C with 100μA cathode current, as verified in the Electrical Characteristics tables (Sections 6.6–6.22). This metric reflects reversible parametric shift and is consistent across all LM4040C-grade devices, including the LM4040C82ILPR.
