Product details
Overview
LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision adjustable shunt voltage reference in SOT-23-3 package, delivering 1.233 V nominal reference voltage with ±0.5% initial tolerance (C grade) at 25°C, 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, 20 μVRMS wideband noise (10 Hz–10 kHz), and stable operation from 60 μA to 12 mA supply current - used in high-accuracy ADC biasing and sensor excitation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (SOT-23), confirmed ADJ-pin feedback topology, industrial-grade (−40°C to +85°C) performance data, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and thermal differences.
Technical Context
The LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB operates as a two-terminal shunt reference with an internal bandgap core and curvature-corrected temperature drift compensation. Its FB pin enables external resistor-divider programming of output voltage from 1.24 V to 10 V, while maintaining low dynamic impedance (0.3 Ω typical at 1 mA) and load regulation within ±2 mV over 60 μA–12 mA.
It features no-output-capacitor-required stability, tolerates capacitive loads up to 10 nF, and achieves thermal hysteresis of only 0.08% across −40°C to +125°C cycling - enabled by Zener-zap wafer-level trimming and fused bandgap architecture.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 1.233 V nominal at 100 μA, VOUT = 5 V - sets precise divider ratio for programmable output |
| Initial Tolerance | ±6.2 mV (±0.5%) at 25°C - enables <1 LSB error in 12-bit systems without calibration |
| Temp Coefficient | ±100 ppm/°C max (−40°C to +85°C) - ensures ≤ ±0.8 mV drift over full industrial range |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431CDBZR | Fixed 2.495 V reference; higher 1 mA min current; 0.2 Ω dynamic impedance | Not adjustable; requires redesign of feedback network for non-2.5 V outputs | Select when fixed 2.5 V output suffices and lower cost is prioritized over adjustability |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB supports an output voltage range of 1.24 V to 10 V, set by external resistor dividers connected to its FB pin. This upper limit is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies across the full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). Exceeding 10 V risks permanent device damage.
Does LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB does not require an external output capacitor. Its internal architecture provides unconditional stability with 0 pF output capacitance and remains stable with capacitive loads up to 10 nF - eliminating the need for additional decoupling components in most designs.
What is the minimum operating current for LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB at 25°C?
The minimum operating current for LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB is 60 μA at 25°C, as specified in Section 5.8 of the datasheet. Below this current, the device may not maintain regulation or specified accuracy. At temperature extremes (−40°C or +85°C), the minimum increases to 65 μA.
How does the feedback pin (FB) function in LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB?
The FB pin of LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB senses the divided output voltage and adjusts shunt current to maintain 1.233 V across the internal reference. With external resistors R1 (top) and R2 (bottom), VOUT = 1.233 V × (1 + R1/R2). The FB pin draws only 60–100 nA, enabling high-impedance divider networks.
Is LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, LM4041DIM3X-ADJ/NOPB is AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualified (−40°C to +85°C ambient), meeting automotive reliability standards for cabin and body electronics. It is not rated for Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C), which applies only to specific LM4041-N-Q1 variants in SOT-23.
