Product details
Overview
LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision micropower series voltage reference in 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package, delivering 1.8 V output with ±1.0% initial accuracy, 100 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 from −40°C to +125°C - ideal for battery-powered instrumentation and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB datasheet, LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB pinout, LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB application, or LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (≤400 mV at 10 mA), stability with capacitive loads up to 10 µF, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
The LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB is a band-gap-based series voltage reference with internal enable logic and no external capacitor requirement for stability. Its architecture ensures monotonic turn-on behavior and indefinite short-circuit protection limiting output current to 75 mA.
It operates across VIN = VREF + 400 mV to 5.5 V, maintains 25–120 ppm/mA load regulation, and achieves 30–100 ppm/V line regulation depending on output voltage - all verified over −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, ±1.0% initial accuracy (D-grade) - sets absolute ADC/DAC reference level with known worst-case error budget. |
| Temperature Coefficient | 100 ppm/°C max - contributes ≤180 µV drift over −40°C to +125°C, critical for high-resolution data acquisition. |
| Supply Current | 60 µA typical - enables multi-year operation from coin-cell batteries in portable medical or IoT sensors. |
| Shutdown Current | 3–7 µA with EN = 0 V - allows system-level power gating without external switches. |
| Dropout Voltage | 400 mV max at 10 mA - permits operation from 2.2 V supply, compatible with single Li-ion or dual alkaline rails. |
| Output Noise | 170 µVPP (0.1–10 Hz) - supports 16-bit+ resolution in low-frequency measurement systems. |
| Load Capability | 20 mA max - drives SAR ADC reference inputs, op-amp bias networks, or small DAC buffers directly. |
Pinout & Package
LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB uses the 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package (Package Number DBV, R-PDSO-G5), with 1.6 mm × 2.9 mm footprint and 0.95 mm height. Pin 1 is N/C (no connect); pins are arranged top-view clockwise from mark dot.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (N/C) | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected and floating; not bonded internally - no routing or grounding allowed. |
| 2 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for reference current; requires low-impedance connection to clean analog ground plane. |
| 3 (EN) | Digital enable input | Active-high control: VIH ≥65% VIN, VIL ≤35% VIN - compatible with 1.8 V/3.3 V logic without level shifters. |
| 4 (VIN) | Input supply rail | Accepts 2.2 V to 5.5 V; must be bypassed with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (CIN) placed adjacent to pin. |
| 5 (VREF) | Precision output terminal | Delivers regulated 1.8 V; stable with optional COUT up to 10 µF - improves transient response under dynamic loads. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified | Validated for automotive applications operating from −40°C to +125°C ambient, with full traceability and process controls. |
| No external stabilization capacitor required | Internally compensated for stability with 0–10 µF capacitive loads - reduces BOM count and PCB area in space-constrained modules. |
| Low thermal hysteresis | 75 ppm max - minimizes repeatability error after thermal cycling, essential for calibration-critical test equipment. |
| Stable with low-ESR ceramics | Compatible with X5R/X7R MLCCs - eliminates need for tantalum or electrolytic capacitors and associated reliability concerns. |
| Indefinite short-circuit protection | Self-limits output to 75 mA during fault - prevents damage during board bring-up or connector misinsertion events. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB?
The LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB supports a maximum input voltage of 5.5 V. Operation above this level risks permanent damage, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings. For reliable performance, VIN must also satisfy VIN ≥ VREF + 400 mV (i.e., ≥2.2 V) at 10 mA load - ensuring proper regulation and dropout margin. This range enables compatibility with common 3.3 V and 5 V supply rails.
Does LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB require an input capacitor?
Yes, LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB requires a minimum 0.1 µF ceramic input capacitor (CIN) connected between VIN and GND. The datasheet mandates CIN ≥ COUT when an output capacitor is used, and specifies X5R or X7R dielectrics for stability. Omitting CIN risks oscillation or degraded noise performance, especially under dynamic load conditions or with long PCB traces.
Is LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB pin-compatible with other LM4128 variants?
Yes, LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB shares identical 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) pinout and package dimensions with all LM4128xMF-x/NOPB variants - including LM4128AMF-1.8/NOPB and LM4128DQ1MF2.5/NOPB. Pin functions (N/C, GND, EN, VIN, VREF) and mechanical layout are fully consistent across voltage options and grade suffixes, enabling drop-in replacement within the same output voltage family.
What does the 'Q' in LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB signify?
The 'Q' in LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB denotes AEC-Q100 qualification per Grade 1 requirements (−40°C to +125°C operation), and indicates manufacturing on TI's automotive-grade flow. The 'D' specifies the 1.0% initial accuracy grade, '1M' identifies the SOT-23 package variant, and 'F1.8' confirms the 1.8 V output. NOPB indicates lead-free (Pb-free) and RoHS-compliant finish.
Can LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB drive a 10 µF output capacitor?
Yes, LM4128DQ1MF1.8/NOPB is explicitly characterized and guaranteed stable with capacitive loads up to 10 µF - a key differentiator from many competing references. Adding COUT improves load transient response and reduces output impedance at higher frequencies, though it increases turn-on time (e.g., ~78.8 µs for 10 µF vs. ~33.2 µs for 1 µF). No series resistance is required.
