Product details
Overview
LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision adjustable shunt voltage reference in TO-92 package, delivering 1.233 V reference voltage with ±12 mV (±1.0%) initial tolerance at 25°C, 100 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 20 μVRMS wideband noise (10 Hz–10 kHz). It operates from 60 μA to 12 mA and supports output voltages from 1.24 V to 10 V - ideal for high-accuracy ADC biasing in portable energy metering systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable output range, low thermal hysteresis (0.08%), no-output-capacitor requirement, and AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualification for industrial-temperature (-40°C to +85°C) operation.
Technical Context
The LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB uses a bandgap-based Zener-zap trimmed shunt architecture with curvature-corrected temperature drift compensation. Its feedback (FB) pin enables external resistor-divider programming of output voltage while maintaining tight regulation across load and temperature.
It achieves stable operation without an output capacitor and tolerates arbitrary capacitive loads - a direct result of low dynamic output impedance (0.3 Ω typical at 1 mA) and optimized internal compensation. The TO-92 package provides robust thermal performance (RθJA = 161.5°C/W) suitable for space-constrained, thermally demanding instrumentation designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 1.233 V at 100 μA, VOUT = 5 V - sets precise gain/bias point for analog signal chains |
| Initial Tolerance | ±12 mV (±1.0%) at 25°C - enables single-point calibration in production test |
| Temp Coefficient | ±100 ppm/°C max (−40°C to +85°C) - ensures ≤ ±8.2 mV drift over full industrial range |
| Operating Current | 60 μA to 12 mA - supports ultra-low-power sensor nodes and high-current DAC references |
| Noise (10 Hz–10 kHz) | 20 μVRMS - preserves SNR in 16-bit+ data acquisition front-ends |
| Output Range | 1.24 V to 10 V - configurable via external resistors for diverse supply rail monitoring needs |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 0.08% - guarantees repeatability after thermal cycling in field-deployed equipment |
Pinout & Package
LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB is housed in a 3-pin TO-92 package (4.30 mm × 4.30 mm body), with leads arranged bottom-view per standard JEDEC TO-92 outline. Pin 1 is FB (feedback input), Pin 2 is Cathode (shunt current path/output node), and Pin 3 is Anode (ground reference).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (FB) | Feedback input | High-impedance (≤100 nA) node that sets output voltage via external resistor divider; must be connected to cathode or left floating |
| Pin 2 (Cathode) | Shunt current sink / output node | Primary connection point for regulated output voltage; sinks all excess current to maintain VOUT |
| Pin 3 (Anode) | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path; must be tied to system ground for stable regulation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431ACLP | Fixed 2.495 V reference; higher 22 Ω dynamic impedance; requires external capacitor for stability | Limited to fixed-voltage use cases; unsuitable for programmable outputs below 2.4 V | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs adjustability and noise performance |
| MAX6126AASA+ | Series reference (not shunt); 1.25 V fixed output; 3 ppm/°C TC; 12 μVRMS noise | Requires dedicated supply rail; incompatible with shunt-based topologies like current-loop drivers | Select for ultra-low-drift applications where series topology and higher supply voltage are acceptable |
Compared with TL431ACLP and MAX6126AASA+, the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB uniquely combines adjustable output, shunt topology, no-capacitor stability, and AEC-Q100 qualification - making it optimal for space-constrained, programmable, and automotive-qualified analog biasing.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB supports an output voltage range of 1.24 V to 10 V, set by external resistor dividers connected to the FB pin. This range is specified under recommended operating conditions (IR = 60 μA to 12 mA) and applies across the industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). Operation above 10 V violates absolute maximum ratings and may cause permanent damage to the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB.
Does LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB require an output capacitor for stability?
No, the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB does not require an output capacitor for stability due to its internally compensated shunt architecture. Its design inherently maintains phase margin across all capacitive loads - including ADC input capacitors and long PCB traces - eliminating the need for external stabilization components and simplifying layout for the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB.
What is the feedback pin (FB) input current specification for LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB?
The FB pin input current for LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB is 60 nA to 100 nA (typical) at 25°C for the D-grade version, rising to ≤120 nA over the full −40°C to +85°C range. This ultra-low bias current minimizes resistor-divider error and enables high-impedance programming networks - a key design advantage of the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB over alternatives with μA-level FB currents.
Is LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB is AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualified for industrial temperature operation (−40°C to +85°C ambient), as confirmed in the official Texas Instruments datasheet. While not Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C), its qualification makes it suitable for cabin and non-engine-compartment automotive subsystems such as body control modules, HVAC sensors, and infotainment power management - where the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB delivers proven reliability.
How does thermal hysteresis impact long-term accuracy of LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB exhibits 0.08% thermal hysteresis - defined as the voltage difference measured at +25°C after cycling to −40°C versus +125°C. For a 5 V output, this equates to ≤4 mV hysteresis-induced error, which remains stable over time and does not accumulate. This performance ensures repeatable calibration in field-deployed equipment subject to repeated thermal cycling, a critical attribute of the LM4041DIZ-ADJ/NOPB in industrial and automotive applications.
