Product details
Overview
LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision micropower series voltage reference in 5-pin SOT-23 package, delivering 1.8 V output with ±0.2% initial accuracy, 75 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and 60 µA supply current. It features an enable pin for 3 µA shutdown mode, supports up to 20 mA load, and operates across −40°C to +125°C - ideal for battery-powered instrumentation and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB datasheet, LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB pinout, LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB application, or LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (200–400 mV at 10 mA), line regulation (30 ppm/V), load regulation (25–120 ppm/mA), low-noise performance (170 µVPP, 0.1–10 Hz), and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
The LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB uses an internal band-gap-derived reference architecture optimized for low quiescent current and high stability without requiring external compensation. Its enable-controlled startup sequence and built-in short-circuit protection (75 mA limit) support robust operation in transient-prone environments.
It maintains regulation over VIN = VREF + 400 mV to 5.5 V, remains stable with capacitive loads up to 10 µF, and achieves thermal hysteresis of 75 ppm - validated across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature range per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.8 V nominal, ±0.2% initial accuracy (B grade) - ensures ADC/DAC reference error ≤3.6 mV at room temperature |
| Temperature Coefficient | 75 ppm/°C max - contributes ≤135 ppm (0.024% of 1.8 V) drift over −40°C to +125°C |
| Supply Current | 60 µA typical - enables >1-year battery life in 10 µA-sleep systems with periodic wake-up |
| Shutdown Current | 3–7 µA with EN = 0 V - reduces system standby power by >90% vs active mode |
| Dropout Voltage | 200–400 mV at 10 mA load - allows operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V) or 3.3 V rails with margin |
| Output Noise | 170 µVPP (0.1–10 Hz) - suitable for 16-bit SAR ADCs requiring <1 LSB noise at 1.8 V full-scale |
| Line Regulation | 30 ppm/V - limits output shift to ≤54 ppm (0.097 mV) over 1.8 V input variation |
Pinout & Package
LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package with 0.95 mm pitch, rated for −40°C to +125°C operation and compliant with AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive reliability standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected and floating; no internal bond or circuit connection |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for reference current; requires low-impedance PCB connection to minimize noise coupling |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic: VIH ≥65% VIN, VIL ≤35% VIN; internal ~2 µA pull-up allows direct tie-to-VIN for always-on operation |
| 4 - VIN | Input supply rail | Accepts 2.2 V to 5.5 V; minimum VIN = VREF + 400 mV ensures regulation under 10 mA load |
| 5 - VREF | Precision output terminal | Delivers stable 1.8 V reference; capable of sourcing up to 20 mA with <120 ppm/mA load regulation |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB?
The LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB is qualified for −40°C to +125°C junction temperature operation per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standards. This range is fully supported by its electrical specifications - including ±0.2% initial accuracy, 75 ppm/°C tempco, and 60 µA supply current - across the entire span without derating. The device undergoes accelerated stress testing to ensure reliability in automotive under-hood and industrial control environments.
Does LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB require an external output capacitor?
No, LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB is internally compensated and stable without an output capacitor. An optional ceramic COUT (0.1–10 µF) may be added to improve load transient response - especially when switching between light and heavy loads - but introduces no stability risk. Input capacitor CIN ≥ 0.1 µF is mandatory; CIN must be ≥ COUT if both are used.
What is the minimum input voltage required for LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB to regulate properly?
The minimum input voltage for LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB is VREF + 400 mV (i.e., 2.2 V) at 10 mA load, per datasheet specification. Dropout voltage is specified as 200–400 mV depending on load and temperature. At lighter loads (<1 mA), regulation is maintained down to ~2.05 V, but design margin should maintain VIN ≥ 2.2 V to guarantee 1.8 V output accuracy and stability across temperature and process variation.
How does the enable pin function on LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB?
The EN pin on LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB is active-high with VIH ≥65% VIN and VIL ≤35% VIN. When pulled high (≥65% VIN), the device operates normally; when pulled low (≤35% VIN), it enters shutdown mode drawing only 3–7 µA. An internal ~2 µA pull-up allows direct connection to VIN for always-on operation. Floating EN is not recommended - tie to VIN or ground via appropriate logic.
Is LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB pin-compatible with other LM4128Q variants?
Yes, all LM4128Q variants - including LM4128BQ1MFX1.8/NOPB, LM4128BQ1MFX2.5/NOPB, and LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB - share identical 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) packaging, pinout, and footprint. Only the output voltage and part marking differ; no PCB layout change is needed when substituting between voltage options within the same grade and package.
