Product details
Overview
LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision micropower series voltage reference in 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package, delivering 4.096 V output with ±1.0% initial accuracy (Grade D), 100 ppm/°C max 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 LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB datasheet, LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB pinout, LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB application, or LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.096 V output voltage, Grade D accuracy and tempco, SOT-23 footprint compatibility, enable-controlled power gating, and stability with capacitive loads up to 10 µF without external compensation.
Technical Context
The LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB implements a band-gap-derived series voltage reference architecture with internal enable logic and low-dropout regulation. Its design eliminates need for external stabilization capacitors while maintaining stability with output capacitance up to 10 µF, enabling compact layout in space-constrained systems.
It operates over VIN = VREF + 400 mV to 5.5 V at 10 mA load, delivers 4.096 V nominal output with 350 µVPP (0.1–10 Hz) noise, and provides indefinite short-circuit protection limiting output current to 75 mA - critical for robustness in industrial analog front-ends.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.096 V nominal; matches common 12-bit DAC/ADC full-scale reference points for direct interface without scaling. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±1.0% (Grade D); ensures ≤41 mV absolute error at 25°C for cost-sensitive calibration-critical applications. |
| Tempco | 100 ppm/°C max; contributes ≤±500 µV drift over −40°C to +125°C ambient, suitable for automotive-grade sensing. |
| Supply Current | 60 µA typical; enables >1-year battery life in 10 µA-sleep IoT nodes when paired with enable control. |
| Dropout Voltage | 400 mV max at 10 mA; allows operation from 4.5 V supply with margin, compatible with standard 5 V rails and LDO outputs. |
| Enable Shutdown Current | 3–7 µA; reduces system standby power by >90% vs active mode, essential for energy-harvesting designs. |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 350 µVPP; supports 14-bit effective resolution in precision data acquisition without additional filtering. |
Pinout & Package
LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB uses the 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package - 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.15 mm body, gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant matte tin lead finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected and floating; no internal connection - PCB pad may be omitted or left unmasked. |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for reference output and internal bias; requires low-impedance connection to clean AGND plane. |
| 3 - EN | Active-high enable input | Drives internal regulator on VIH ≥65% VIN; pulls down to GND or floats to disable (3 µA shutdown). |
| 4 - VIN | Input supply rail | Accepts 4.496 V to 5.5 V (≥VREF + 400 mV); must be bypassed with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor per layout guidelines. |
| 5 - VREF | Precision reference output | Delivers stable 4.096 V; capable of sourcing up to 20 mA; stable with COUT up to 10 µF ceramic (low ESR). |

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB over temperature?
The LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB has a maximum temperature coefficient of 100 ppm/°C over −40°C to +125°C junction temperature. Combined with its ±1.0% initial accuracy at 25°C, total output deviation remains within ±1.25% across the full operating range - verified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements. This makes LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB suitable for automotive cabin and engine bay applications where thermal stability is critical.
Does LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB require an external output capacitor?
No, LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB is designed to operate stably without an external output capacitor. It remains stable with capacitive loads up to 10 µF, including optional ceramic COUT for improved load transient response. However, an input capacitor (CIN ≥ 0.1 µF) is mandatory for stable operation - a requirement explicitly stated in the TI datasheet and validated in all LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB application circuits.
What is the minimum input voltage required for LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB to regulate properly?
The LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB requires VIN ≥ VREF + 400 mV to maintain regulation, i.e., ≥4.496 V at 10 mA load. At lighter loads, dropout decreases - e.g., 175 mV typical at 10 mA for 4.096 V variants. Operation below this threshold causes output voltage collapse; the part does not enter dropout gracefully but ceases regulation. This 400 mV dropout spec is guaranteed across −40°C to +125°C for LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB.
How does the enable pin (EN) function on LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB?
The EN pin on LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB is an active-high digital control input. When pulled ≥65% of VIN, the device operates normally (60 µA IQ). When pulled ≤35% of VIN or grounded, it enters shutdown mode drawing only 3–7 µA. The pin features an internal ~2 µA pull-up, allowing direct connection to VIN for always-on operation. Floating EN is not recommended - TI specifies explicit drive for reliable state control in LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB.
Is LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB pin-compatible with other LM4128 variants?
Yes, all LM4128 variants - including LM4128DQ1MF4.1/NOPB - share identical 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) packaging and pinout (N/C, GND, EN, VIN, VREF). Voltage options (1.8 V to 4.096 V) and grade suffixes (A/B/C/D) do not affect mechanical or electrical pin compatibility. This allows drop-in replacement during design iteration or BOM optimization, provided system-level accuracy and tempco requirements are re-verified for the new variant.
