Product details
Overview
LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision micropower shunt voltage reference in SC70-3 package, delivering a fixed 2.048 V reverse breakdown voltage with ±0.5% initial tolerance (C grade), 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 35 μVRMS wideband noise (10 Hz–10 kHz). It operates from 60 μA to 15 mA over −40°C to +85°C and requires no output capacitor-used in analog input modules and field transmitters for stable ADC biasing.
For engineers reviewing the LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB datasheet, LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB pinout, LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB application, or LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its SC70-3 footprint, shunt topology, 2.048 V nominal output, industrial temperature range, and low dynamic impedance (0.9 Ω typical) under 1 mA test current.
Technical Context
The LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB uses Zener-zap trimming during wafer sort to achieve ±0.5% initial accuracy at 25°C and incorporates bandgap-derived curvature correction for stable voltage vs. temperature. Its shunt architecture sinks current to regulate cathode voltage relative to anode (grounded), enabling simple two-terminal operation.
It tolerates capacitive loads without oscillation and maintains stability across 60 μA–15 mA operating current. The device exhibits 0.08% thermal hysteresis after cycling between −40°C and +125°C, and long-term drift of 120 ppm over 1000 hours at 25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.048 V nominal reverse breakdown voltage - sets precise reference point for ADCs and sensor signal chains |
| Initial Tolerance | ±0.5% at 25°C (C grade) - enables high-accuracy calibration without post-manufacture trimming |
| Temp Coefficient | ≤100 ppm/°C (max) over −40°C to +85°C - ensures ≤±0.052 V drift across full industrial range |
| Operating Current | 60 μA to 15 mA - supports ultra-low-power sensor nodes and high-current analog front-ends |
| Noise (10 Hz–10 kHz) | 35 μVRMS - minimizes quantization error in 16-bit+ data acquisition systems |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.9 Ω typical at 1 mA - provides tight load regulation (<1 mV change per 1 mA load shift) |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 0.08% - guarantees repeatable voltage after thermal cycling in automotive and industrial environments |
Pinout & Package
LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB is housed in a 3-pin SC70 (DCK) package (2.00 mm × 1.25 mm body size) with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 is Anode (ground), Pin 2 is Cathode (output/reference node), and Pin 3 is NC (no connect, must float or tie to anode).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Reference ground node | Must be connected to system ground; defines voltage reference plane for cathode output |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Shunt current sink / output terminal | Delivers regulated 2.048 V when current flows into this pin; connects to divider or load |
| NC (Pin 3) | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; TI recommends floating or tying to anode in high-EMI environments |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external capacitor required | Enables space-constrained PCB layouts and eliminates capacitor-related aging or ESR instability |
| Capacitive load tolerance | Stable with any output capacitance - simplifies filtering in noisy industrial power rails |
| Zener-zap voltage trim | Ensures ±0.5% initial accuracy without laser trimming - improves manufacturing yield and cost |
| Bandgap temperature curvature correction | Reduces parabolic drift over temperature - achieves flat VR vs. T response in extended range |
| Low quiescent current | 60 μA minimum operating current - extends battery life in portable field instruments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4040AIM7-2.0/NOPB | ±0.1% initial tolerance (A grade), same SC70-3 package and 2.048 V output | Required where tighter initial accuracy needed for factory calibration or metrology-grade DAQ | Select when ±0.1% tolerance justifies higher cost; identical layout and thermal behavior |
| TLV431ACDBVR | Adjustable 1.24–6 V output, 1% initial tolerance, 3-pin SOT-23, 0.3 Ω dynamic impedance | Suitable for designs needing programmable reference or lower cost, but lacks 2.048 V exact match | Choose for flexibility and cost-sensitive applications; requires external resistor network and has higher noise (60 μVRMS) |
Compared with LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB, the LM4040AIM7-2.0/NOPB offers 5× tighter initial tolerance at same footprint, while TLV431ACDBVR trades fixed 2.048 V accuracy for adjustability and lower unit cost-making it viable only where 2.048 V isn't mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating current for LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB?
The LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB supports a maximum operating current of 15 mA. This upper limit is defined by absolute maximum ratings and thermal constraints of the SC70-3 package, which has a 241 mW power dissipation rating at 25°C ambient. Exceeding 15 mA risks exceeding junction temperature limits or violating safe operating area specifications.
Does LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB require an external capacitor for stability?
No, LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB does not require an external output capacitor. Its internal design eliminates the need for stabilization capacitance while maintaining stability with any capacitive load-a key advantage for compact, low-component-count designs like portable data loggers and sensor nodes.
What is the temperature range supported by LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB?
The LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB is rated for the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. This is confirmed in Section 5.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Electrical Characteristics tables (e.g., 5.6 and 5.9) for C-grade devices in SC70 and SOT-23 packages.
How does the NC pin (Pin 3) function on LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB?
Pin 3 of LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB is a no-connect terminal. Per TI's datasheet (Table 4-1), it must be left floating or tied to the anode (Pin 1). In high-EMI environments-such as near switching power supplies or motor drives-TI recommends connecting Pin 3 to Pin 1 to reduce noise susceptibility.
Is LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB AEC-Q100 qualified?
No, LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Only variants with "-Q1" suffix (e.g., LM4040CIM7-2.0Q1) carry AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualification. The LM4040CIM7-2.0/NOPB is specified for industrial use and lacks automotive stress testing and documentation required for automotive deployment.
