Product details
Overview
LM4040D30H5TA from Diodes Incorporated is a precision 3.0V shunt voltage reference in SC70-5 package with ±1% initial tolerance at +25°C, 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and stable operation from 60 µA to 15 mA reverse current. It serves as a compact, low-noise (45 µVRMS, 10 Hz–10 kHz) reference for analog signal conditioning and ADC/DAC biasing in space-constrained portable systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM4040D30H5TA datasheet, LM4040D30H5TA pinout, LM4040D30H5TA application, or LM4040D30H5TA equivalent, key selection criteria include its SC70-5 footprint compatibility, capacitive-load tolerance without external capacitor, wide operating current range, and thermal hysteresis of 0.08% over −40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The LM4040D30H5TA implements a bandgap-based shunt reference architecture optimized for micro-power operation. Its internal circuit maintains regulation by sinking current through the cathode-anode path when reverse-biased above 3.0 V, with dynamic impedance as low as 0.9 Ω at 1 mA.
It operates across −40°C to +125°C ambient with no output capacitor required, and exhibits low long-term stability drift (120 ppm over 1000 hours). Pin 3 must be left floating or tied to pin 2 due to die attachment constraints in the SC70-5 package.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.0 V nominal reverse breakdown voltage - sets precise bias point for analog circuits and data converters. |
| Initial Tolerance | ±1% at +25°C - defines worst-case DC accuracy before calibration or trimming. |
| Temp Coefficient | 100 ppm/°C max (−40°C to +125°C) - limits voltage drift across industrial temperature range. |
| Operating Current | 60 µA to 15 mA reverse current - enables use in ultra-low-power sensors and high-current reference buffers. |
| Noise (10 Hz–10 kHz) | 45 µVRMS - ensures minimal contribution to system noise floor in precision measurement paths. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.9 Ω at 1 mA - provides stable regulation under varying load transients. |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 0.08% - guarantees repeatable voltage after thermal cycling, critical for metrology-grade designs. |
Pinout & Package
LM4040D30H5TA uses the SC70-5 surface-mount package (end-of-life per Diodes Inc. documentation), with pin 1 = Anode, pin 2 = Cathode, pin 3 = NC (must float or connect to pin 2), pins 4–5 = NC. Die attachment links pin 2 and pin 3 electrically.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode | Reference ground node; connects to system GND in shunt configuration. |
| Pin 2 | Cathode | Output node; sinks current to maintain 3.0 V across external load/resistor. |
| Pin 3 | No Connect (NC) | Internally tied to die substrate; must float or short to pin 2 - not usable as independent terminal. |
| Pins 4–5 | No Connect (NC) | Unused package pads; no electrical function or internal connection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No output capacitor required | Stable regulation with up to 1 µF tantalum capacitance - simplifies layout and reduces BOM count. |
| Capacitive-load tolerant | Maintains stability with >1 µF output capacitance - eliminates need for isolation resistors in noisy environments. |
| Micro-power operation | 60 µA minimum operating current - enables use in battery-powered devices with multi-year runtime. |
| Extended temperature range | −40°C to +125°C operation - supports industrial and automotive under-hood applications. |
| Green packaging | Lead-free, halogen- and antimony-free SOT23/SC70 - meets RoHS 3 and JEDEC MSL-1 requirements. |
Applications
| Battery-Powered Instrumentation | Precision Data Acquisition |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4040D30FTA | SOT23-3 package (active production); same 3.0 V, ±1%, SC70-5 pinout incompatible. | Requires PCB redesign due to different footprint and pin 3 functionality (SOT23 pin 3 = anode, not NC). | Select for new designs needing long-term supply continuity - SC70-5 is EOL per Diodes Inc. |
| TLV431ACDBVR | Adjustable shunt reference (1.24 V to 6 V); 1% tolerance; higher 120 ppm/°C TC; 80 µVRMS noise. | Requires two external resistors for 3.0 V setting; less stable over temperature and noisier than LM4040D30H5TA. | Choose only if adjustable output or SOT23-5 footprint compatibility is mandatory; performance trade-offs apply. |
Compared with LM4040D30FTA, the H5 variant offers identical electrical specs but obsolete packaging; compared with TLV431ACDBVR, it delivers superior TC, lower noise, and fixed-output simplicity at the cost of adjustability.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current rating for LM4040D30H5TA?
The absolute maximum continuous reverse current is 20 mA, but the recommended operating range is 60 µA to 15 mA. Exceeding 15 mA risks exceeding the 330 mW power dissipation limit in SC70-5 at +25°C ambient, potentially degrading long-term stability or causing thermal shutdown in enclosed assemblies.
Can LM4040D30H5TA be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes - the device is explicitly designed to remain stable with capacitive loads up to 1 µF, including X7R and C0G ceramics. No series isolation resistor is needed, unlike many older shunt references. Stability is verified across temperature and current ranges per Diodes Inc. DS33195 Rev. 8 test data.
Is LM4040D30H5TA pin-compatible with LM4040D30FTA?
No - LM4040D30H5TA uses SC70-5 (5-pin) with pin 3 as NC (tied to pin 2), while LM4040D30FTA uses SOT23-3 (3-pin) where pin 3 is the anode. The footprints, pin counts, and internal connectivity differ; PCB redesign is required for substitution.
What is the long-term stability specification for LM4040D30H5TA?
Long-term stability is 120 ppm non-cumulative over 1000 hours at +25°C with 100 µA reverse current. This reflects typical parametric drift under accelerated aging conditions and is measured per JEDEC JESD22-A117; actual field drift is typically lower under nominal operating conditions.
