Product details
Overview
LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision 1.225 V shunt voltage reference in SC70-5 package, rated for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), with ±0.5% initial tolerance (C-grade), 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, 20 μVRMS noise (10 Hz–10 kHz), and stable operation from 60 μA to 12 mA supply current. It serves as a compact, low-drift reference in analog signal chains of portable instrumentation and energy metering systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB datasheet, LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB pinout, LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB application, or LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated SC70-5 terminal mapping, confirmed automotive-qualified alternatives, and design-meaningful feature translation - all grounded in TI's SNOS641I revision July 2025 datasheet.
Technical Context
The LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB implements a bandgap-based shunt reference architecture with curvature-corrected temperature drift compensation and Zener-zap wafer-level trimming. Its reverse breakdown voltage is fixed at 1.225 V with no external capacitor required for stability.
It operates as a two-terminal device (anode and cathode) with a dedicated feedback (FB) pin in the 5-pin SC70 package, enabling precise output regulation while tolerating capacitive loads up to 10 nF without oscillation. The FB pin must be left floating or tied to anode per TI layout guidance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.225 V nominal reverse breakdown voltage - sets absolute accuracy baseline for ADC/DAC biasing and sensor excitation circuits. |
| Initial Tolerance | ±0.5% (C-grade) at 25°C - corresponds to ±6.1 mV error, enabling 12-bit system accuracy without calibration. |
| Temp Coefficient | ≤100 ppm/°C over −40°C to +85°C - contributes ≤12.5 mV drift across full industrial range, critical for unheated field instruments. |
| Operating Current | 60 μA to 12 mA - supports ultra-low-power battery monitoring (e.g., coin-cell IoT sensors) and high-current precision DAC references. |
| Output Noise | 20 μVRMS (10 Hz–10 kHz) - limits quantization uncertainty in 16-bit+ data acquisition systems using external op-amp buffers. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.5–1.5 Ω at 1 mA - ensures <1 mV load regulation shift under 1 mA step changes, simplifying current-source design. |
| Long-Term Stability | 120 ppm after 1000 hrs - predicts <0.015% output drift over 5 years, supporting metrology-grade lifetime calibration intervals. |
Pinout & Package
LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB uses the 5-pin SC70 (DCK) package (1.25 mm × 2.00 mm body), with pin 1 = FB, pin 2 = Anode, pin 3 = Cathode, pins 4–5 = NC. Anode is normally grounded; cathode carries shunt current and defines output node; FB pin enables adjustable configurations but is unused in fixed 1.225 V variants and must float or connect to anode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (FB) | Feedback input | Unused in fixed-voltage mode; must be left open or tied to anode to avoid instability - not a functional output pin. |
| Pin 2 (Anode) | Reference ground node | Typically connected to system ground; provides return path for shunt current and establishes reference potential. |
| Pin 3 (Cathode) | Shunt output terminal | Delivers regulated 1.225 V when sinking current; connects to resistor divider or load requiring precision bias. |
| Pins 4 & 5 (NC) | No-connect terminals | Internally unconnected; no PCB routing or grounding required - improves layout flexibility in dense layouts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No output capacitor required | Eliminates BOM cost and board space for stabilization caps - enables direct use in space-constrained wearables and sensor nodes. |
| Tolerates capacitive loads | Stable with ≥10 nF load capacitance - allows integration with ADC input filters or long PCB traces without phase-margin analysis. |
| Low 60 μA minimum current | Enables operation from micro-power LDOs or high-value bias resistors - extends battery life in always-on monitoring devices. |
| 20 μVRMS wideband noise | Reduces effective number of bits (ENOB) degradation in 16-bit SAR ADCs - avoids need for additional low-noise post-regulation filtering. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualified | Validated for −40°C to +85°C ambient operation - supports industrial control and automotive cabin electronics without derating. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM4041CIM3X-1.2/NOPB | SOT-23-3 package (1.30 mm × 2.92 mm); same C-grade specs; no FB or NC pins. | Larger footprint; simpler layout but lacks FB pin for future adjustable variants. | Select when board area permits larger package and no multi-voltage flexibility is needed. |
| TLVH431ACDBVR | Adjustable 1.24–18 V output; 1% initial tolerance; 90 ppm/°C tempco; SC70-5 package. | Requires external resistor divider; higher tolerance reduces absolute accuracy in fixed-reference roles. | Choose only if programmable output voltage is required; not a drop-in replacement for fixed 1.225 V use. |
Compared with LM4041CIM3X-1.2/NOPB, the LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB saves 38% board area in SC70-5 while retaining identical electrical specs; versus TLVH431ACDBVR, it delivers tighter ±0.5% tolerance and lower noise but sacrifices output adjustability - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-accuracy fixed-reference designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB?
The LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB is specified for industrial temperature operation from −40°C to +85°C (Grade 3). It is not rated for extended −40°C to +125°C operation - that range applies only to C/E-grade variants in SOT-23 or TO-92 packages, not the SC70-5 LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB variant.
Can LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB be used without an external capacitor?
Yes. The LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB requires no output capacitor for stability and remains stable with capacitive loads up to 10 nF. This eliminates a common BOM item and simplifies layout - a key advantage confirmed in TI's SNOS641I datasheet Section 3 and Figure 8-1.
What is the function of Pin 1 (FB) on LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB?
Pin 1 is the Feedback (FB) terminal. In the fixed 1.225 V version LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB, FB is unused and must be left floating or connected to the anode (Pin 2) per TI's layout guidance in Section 4 of SNOS641I - it is not an output or control pin in this configuration.
How does the 60 μA minimum operating current impact low-power design?
The 60 μA minimum current allows LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB to operate from high-value bias resistors (e.g., 100 kΩ from 3.3 V yields ~33 μA - insufficient) or micro-power LDOs. Designers must ensure ≥60 μA total shunt current under worst-case conditions, including load and leakage, to maintain regulation.
Is LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes. LM4041DIM7X-1.2/NOPB is AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualified for automotive applications, with validation across −40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This qualification is explicitly stated in TI's LM4041-N datasheet Features section and applies to the SC70-5 package variant.
