Product details
Overview
LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision low-dropout (LDO) series voltage reference IC delivering a stable 2.5 V output with 0.05% initial accuracy, 10 ppm/°C temperature coefficient (0°C to 85°C), and 60 µA quiescent current. It operates from VIN = VREF + 400 mV (min) up to 5.5 V and supports 20 mA load current - enabling use in high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing, portable instrumentation, and battery-powered test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB datasheet, LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB pinout, LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB application, or LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 10 mA (175 mV typ), enable-controlled shutdown (3 µA IQ_SD), line regulation (50 ppm/V), load regulation (25 ppm/mA), and SOT-23-5 package compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB implements a CMOS band-gap architecture with EEPROM-based curvature and tempco correction, enabling laser-trimmed reference performance in cost-effective plastic packaging. Its internal enable logic drives an active-high EN pin that transitions between 60 µA operating mode and 3 µA shutdown state, with VIH = 65% VIN and VIL = 35% VIN across –40°C to +125°C.
This A-grade device is specified for 2.5 V output with ±0.05% initial tolerance and 10 ppm/°C tempco over 0°C–85°C - tighter than B–E grades - and maintains 0.5% output accuracy down to 400 mV dropout at full 20 mA load. No output capacitor is required, though COUT improves transient response.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.5 V ±0.05% (±1.25 mV) at 25°C - enables 16-bit ADC reference with <0.002% full-scale error |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C to 85°C) - drift ≤ ±0.21 mV over industrial range, critical for precision sensor signal chains |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV typ at 10 mA - allows operation from 2.675 V input, supporting single-cell Li-ion or 3.3 V rail margin |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA typ - enables >1-year battery life in 10 µA sleep-mode systems with periodic measurement bursts |
| Shutdown Current | 3 µA max at EN = 0 V - reduces standby power by 95% vs active mode, essential for energy harvesting nodes |
| Line Regulation | 50 ppm/V - output shifts <125 µV per volt of input variation, minimizing supply ripple coupling |
| Load Regulation | 25 ppm/mA - output changes <62.5 µV per mA load step, ensuring stability under dynamic DAC/ADC loads |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, 0.95 mm height, gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is top-left (mark dot adjacent), pin 5 is top-right.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Must remain floating; no internal connection - PCB pad may be omitted or left unconnected |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground reference | Low-impedance return path for reference output and internal band-gap; requires dedicated ground plane tie |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high digital input; VIH ≥ 65% VIN enables output, VIL ≤ 35% VIN disables - compatible with 1.8 V/3.3 V logic |
| 4 - VIN | Input supply | Accepts 2.9 V to 5.5 V; minimum VIN = VREF + 400 mV ensures regulation - decoupling capacitor (CIN) mandatory |
| 5 - VREF | Precision output | 2.5 V reference source; capable of sourcing 20 mA; optional COUT improves PSRR and transient response |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| EEPROM-trimmed CMOS band-gap | Eliminates assembly-induced voltage shift - achieves 0.05% accuracy without laser trimming, reducing cost and test time |
| Enable-controlled shutdown | Reduces supply current from 60 µA to 3 µA - extends battery life in duty-cycled data loggers and portable meters |
| No output capacitor required | Stable with only input capacitor (CIN); avoids COUT-related phase margin risks and board space overhead in space-constrained designs |
| Low-noise 0.1–10 Hz output | 240 µVPP typical - suitable for 24-bit sigma-delta ADCs where reference noise directly limits effective resolution |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified | Rated for –40°C to +125°C ambient - validated for automotive engine control, ADAS sensor modules, and industrial motor drives |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF3025AIDBZR | Fixed 2.5 V, 50 ppm/°C max tempco, 50 µA IQ, SOT-23-3, no enable pin | Lacks shutdown control; lower accuracy grade; simpler layout but no power-gating capability | Choose when ultra-low IQ (50 µA) and minimal footprint (3-pin) outweigh need for enable and tighter tempco |
| ADR3425ARJZ-R7 | 2.5 V, 10 ppm/°C max, 120 µA IQ, SOT-23-5, no enable, higher noise (31 µVPP) | Higher supply current limits battery life; no shutdown mode; better long-term stability (15 ppm/1k hrs) | Prefer when long-term drift dominates design requirements and enable functionality is unnecessary |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB is 6 V, but the recommended operating maximum is 5.5 V. Exceeding 5.5 V risks violating absolute maximum ratings and may degrade long-term reliability. The device functions correctly from VIN = VREF + 400 mV (2.9 V min) up to 5.5 V, with optimal performance near 5 V.
Does LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB require an output capacitor?
No, LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB is stable without an output capacitor (COUT), unlike many older voltage references. A 1 µF ceramic COUT is optional and improves PSRR above 10 kHz and load transient response - but is not required for basic regulation. Input capacitor CIN (≥1 µF ceramic) is mandatory for stability.
What does the 'A' grade signify in LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB?
The 'A' in LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB denotes the highest accuracy grade: ±0.05% initial output voltage tolerance and 10 ppm/°C temperature coefficient over 0°C to 85°C. This grade is tested and binned separately - distinguishing it from B (±0.1%), C (±0.2%), D (±0.4%), and E (±0.5%) grades in the same LM4132 family.
Can LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB drive a 20 mA load continuously?
Yes, LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB is rated for continuous 20 mA output current across –40°C to +125°C ambient. At 20 mA and 25°C, dropout remains ≤400 mV, and output voltage stays within ±0.5% of 2.5 V. Thermal derating applies above 85°C ambient due to SOT-23-5's 164.1°C/W RθJA.
Is LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, LM4132AMF-2.5/NOPB is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40°C to +125°C ambient), with HBM ESD rating of ±2000 V. It meets automotive requirements for cabin sensors, body control modules, and infotainment subsystems - though it is not the automotive-specific LM4132-Q1 variant, which adds additional qualification testing.
