Product details
Overview
LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision micropower series voltage reference in 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package, delivering 3.3 V output with ±0.2% initial accuracy, 75 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and 60 µA supply current. It supports 20 mA load current, features an enable pin for 3 µA shutdown mode, and operates from −40°C to +125°C - ideal for battery-powered instrumentation and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB datasheet, LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB pinout, LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB application, or LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, dropout voltage ≤400 mV at 10 mA, stability with up to 10 µF capacitive loads, and no external stabilizing capacitor requirement.
Technical Context
The LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB uses an advanced band-gap–derived reference architecture optimized for low quiescent current and high PSRR. Its enable-controlled operation allows seamless integration into power-gated systems, while internal compensation eliminates need for external stabilization.
It maintains output regulation across input voltages from (VREF + 400 mV) to 5.5 V and load currents from 0 to 20 mA, with line regulation ≤85 ppm/V and load regulation ≤120 ppm/mA over −40°C to +125°C - meeting stringent requirements for automotive-grade data acquisition and precision regulators.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V nominal, ±0.2% initial accuracy (B grade) - ensures ADC/DAC reference error ≤6.6 mV at room temperature |
| Tempco | 75 ppm/°C max - limits drift to ≤24.8 µV/°C over full range, critical for thermal-stable sensor interfaces |
| Supply Current | 60 µA typical - enables >1-year battery life in 10 µA-sleep IoT nodes with periodic measurement bursts |
| Shutdown Current | 3–7 µA with EN = 0 V - reduces system standby power by >90% vs active mode |
| Dropout Voltage | 175–400 mV at 10 mA - supports operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) or 3.3 V rail with margin |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 310 µVPP - suitable for 16-bit SAR ADCs requiring <1 LSB noise at 3.3 V full-scale |
| Junction Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood automotive electronics |

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB?
The LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB supports up to 20 mA output current while maintaining regulation within specifications. This enables direct driving of precision DACs, op-amp bias networks, and ADC reference inputs without external buffering - verified across −40°C to +125°C with load regulation ≤120 ppm/mA.
Does LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB require an external input capacitor?
Yes - a minimum 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (X5R/X7R) is required between VIN and GND for stable operation. The LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB datasheet specifies CIN ≥ COUT, and recommends 4.7–22 µF for improved noise suppression and startup overshoot control. Omitting CIN risks instability or excessive output ripple.
Is LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB pin-compatible with other LM4128 variants?
Yes - all LM4128xMFXx.x/NOPB variants share identical 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) pinout and footprint. The LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB can be substituted for LM4128AMF-3.3/NOPB or LM4128CMF-3.3/NOPB without layout changes, though grade-dependent parameters (initial accuracy, tempco) differ per part number.
What is the enable logic polarity and voltage threshold for LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB?
The LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB features active-high enable: EN must be ≥65% of VIN to activate regulation, and ≤35% of VIN to enter 3–7 µA shutdown mode. With VIN = 5 V, this corresponds to VIH ≥3.25 V and VIL ≤1.75 V - ensuring compatibility with standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic families.
How does LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB achieve stability without an external compensation capacitor?
The LM4128BQ1MFX3.3/NOPB integrates internal frequency compensation optimized for its band-gap reference core and output stage. This design eliminates need for external capacitors while guaranteeing stability with capacitive loads up to 10 µF - validated across all operating conditions in the official TI datasheet SNVS475E.
