Product details
Overview
LM4132AMFX-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 features an enable pin for 3 µA shutdown mode, supports up to 20 mA load current, and operates with input voltages as low as VREF + 400 mV - enabling use in battery-powered instrumentation and high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB datasheet, LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB pinout, LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB application, or LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include initial accuracy grade (A), dropout voltage at 10 mA (175 mV), 0.1–10 Hz noise (240 µVPP), and SOT-23-5 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB implements a CMOS band-gap architecture with EEPROM-based curvature and tempco correction, enabling laser-trimmed-level precision without laser trimming. Its internal circuitry eliminates the need for an output capacitor or buffer amplifier while maintaining stability with low-ESR ceramic capacitors.
This device operates as a series reference, drawing only 60 µA supply current and achieving 400 mV maximum dropout across –40°C to +125°C. The enable pin controls transition between active (60 µA) and shutdown (3 µA) modes, with VIH/VIL thresholds defined as 65%/35% of VIN - supporting direct interfacing with 3.3 V or 5 V logic.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB?
The LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB supports a maximum input voltage of 5.5 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation above this voltage risks permanent damage. For reliable regulation, VIN must remain within VREF + 400 mV (i.e., ≥2.9 V) and ≤5.5 V across all temperatures and load conditions.
Does the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB require an output capacitor?
No, the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB is designed to operate stably without an output capacitor - a key differentiator from many LDO references. The datasheet explicitly states COUT is optional, and typical applications omit it unless additional noise filtering is needed for specific system requirements.
What is the shutdown current of the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB?
The LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB draws a maximum of 3 µA in shutdown mode when the EN pin is held at ≤35% of VIN. At –40°C to +125°C, the worst-case shutdown current remains ≤7 µA, enabling multi-year battery life in intermittently powered sensor nodes.
Is the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB pin-compatible with automotive-grade variants?
Yes - the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB shares identical SOT-23-5 pinout, electrical characteristics, and functional behavior with the LM4132Q1-2.5 variants. The only differences are qualification level (AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for Q1) and screening; no PCB redesign is needed when upgrading to automotive versions.
What load current can the LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB deliver while maintaining accuracy?
The LM4132AMFX-2.5/NOPB delivers up to 20 mA output current while maintaining its specified 0.5% output voltage accuracy. Load regulation is characterized at 25 ppm/mA (0–20 mA), meaning output deviation remains ≤500 µV under full load - sufficient for driving ADC references and op-amp bias networks directly.
