Product details
Overview
LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade precision low-dropout 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 from VIN = VREF + 400 mV to 5.5 V - ideal for battery-powered instrumentation and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 datasheet, LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 pinout, LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 application, or LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (–40°C to +125°C), SOT-23-5 package compatibility, dropout voltage ≤400 mV at 10 mA, line regulation of 50 ppm/V, and stability with low-ESR ceramic capacitors without requiring an output buffer.
Technical Context
The LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 uses EEPROM-trimmed CMOS band-gap architecture to achieve laser-trimmed bipolar-level precision in cost-effective packaging. Its curvature, tempco, and accuracy are corrected at package level to overcome assembly-induced shifts - a key differentiator versus conventional trimmed references.
This device functions as a series-connected, three-terminal voltage reference with active enable control. It delivers regulated 2.5 V output referenced to GND, accepts input from VIN ≥2.9 V, and enters ultra-low-power shutdown when EN is pulled low - enabling precise power sequencing in automotive ADAS and data acquisition subsystems.
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 biasing with <0.001 LSB error contribution |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C to 85°C), 20 ppm/°C (–40°C to 125°C) - ensures ≤±0.05% output drift over full automotive range |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV (typ.) at 10 mA load - allows operation from 2.675 V supply, critical for low-voltage battery systems |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA (typ.), 100 µA (max) - supports >10-year battery life in always-on automotive monitoring circuits |
| Shutdown Current | 3 µA (typ.) when EN = 0 V - reduces standby power by >95% vs active mode |
| Load Regulation | 25 ppm/mA (0–20 mA) - maintains output stability under dynamic sensor loading |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 240 µVPP - suitable for high-resolution 24-bit sigma-delta ADC reference inputs |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package, 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body size, with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 is NC (no connect); pins are arranged left-to-right, top-view: Pin 1 (NC), Pin 2 (GND), Pin 3 (EN), Pin 4 (VIN), Pin 5 (VREF).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (NC) | No-connect terminal | Must remain floating; no internal connection - avoids unintended parasitic coupling |
| Pin 2 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for reference output and internal bias; requires low-impedance PCB plane |
| Pin 3 (EN) | Digital enable input | Active-high logic: VIH ≥65% VIN, VIL ≤35% VIN - enables seamless integration with MCU GPIOs |
| Pin 4 (VIN) | Input supply rail | Accepts 2.9 V to 5.5 V; must be bypassed with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to suppress PSRR degradation |
| Pin 5 (VREF) | Precision output terminal | Delivers 2.5 V reference; stable with 0.1 µF–10 µF ceramic COUT - no buffer required |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5?
The LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 supports a maximum input voltage of 5.5 V across its specified operating temperature range. This limit is defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies regardless of load or enable state. Exceeding 5.5 V risks permanent damage. For reliable operation, VIN should be maintained between VREF + 400 mV (2.9 V) and 5.5 V, with proper decoupling capacitance on the VIN pin.
Does the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 require an output capacitor for stability?
No, the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 is stable with no output capacitor and also supports optional ceramic COUT values from 0.1 µF to 10 µF. Unlike many references, it does not require a minimum ESR or specific capacitor type for phase margin - eliminating the need for tantalum or electrolytic capacitors. This simplifies layout and improves reliability in automotive environments where capacitor aging is a concern.
What is the enable pin logic threshold for the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5?
The LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 enable pin uses ratio-metric thresholds: VIH (minimum high level) is 65% of VIN, and VIL (maximum low level) is 35% of VIN - both specified over –40°C to +125°C. This allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V or 5 V GPIOs without level-shifting. When EN is below VIL, the device enters 3 µA shutdown mode; when above VIH, it operates normally with full 2.5 V output regulation.
Is the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 is AEC-Q100 qualified for Device Temperature Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C ambient), with HBM ESD rating of ±2000 V. It is explicitly designated as an automotive-grade part (denoted by "-Q1" suffix in the family name), and its characterization - including tempco, long-term stability, and thermal hysteresis - was performed across the full automotive temperature range per AEC-Q100 test requirements.
What is the typical output noise performance of the LM4132AQ1MFT2.5?
The LM4132AQ1MFT2.5 delivers 240 µVPP (peak-to-peak) output noise over the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz bandwidth - a critical specification for high-resolution data acquisition. This value is measured under standard conditions (TJ = 25°C, VIN = 5 V, ILOAD = 0 mA) and is confirmed in Section 6.7 of the official datasheet. The noise performance remains consistent across grades and is unaffected by the enable pin state in active mode.
