Product details
Overview
LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision low-dropout (LDO) series voltage reference IC delivering a stable 3.0 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 and supports up to 20 mA load current - ideal for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB datasheet, LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB pinout, LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB application, or LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (175 mV at 10 mA), line regulation (70 ppm/V), load regulation (25 ppm/mA), thermal hysteresis (75 ppm), and SOT-23-5 package compatibility with low-ESR ceramic capacitors.
Technical Context
The LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB uses EEPROM-trimmed CMOS bandgap architecture to achieve laser-trimmed bipolar-level precision without laser trimming. Its curvature, tempco, and accuracy are corrected at package level to mitigate assembly-induced shifts - enabling consistent 3.0 V output across temperature and life cycle.
This device operates as a series reference with VIN range from VREF + 400 mV (3.4 V) to 5.5 V, eliminating need for output buffer or mandatory output capacitor. The EN pin controls active/shutdown states with VIH = 65% VIN and VIL = 35% VIN thresholds, supporting seamless power sequencing in battery-powered systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.0 V ±0.05% (A-grade initial accuracy - ensures ≤1.5 mV absolute error at 25°C) |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C to 85°C) - enables ≤0.25 mV drift over industrial temperature range |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV at 10 mA load - allows operation from 3.4 V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion or 3.3 V rail derivation |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA - minimizes standby power in always-on sensor nodes and portable meters |
| Shutdown Current | 3 µA - reduces system idle power by >95% vs active mode |
| Load Regulation | 25 ppm/mA - maintains ≤75 µV change per mA load shift, essential for precision DAC reference stability |

| 1 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected; floating - no internal connection or function |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for reference output and internal circuitry; requires low-impedance PCB tie to system AGND |
| 3 - EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic input; drives device into 3 µA shutdown when pulled ≤35% VIN |
| 4 - VIN | Input supply | Accepts 3.4 V to 5.5 V; must be bypassed with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| 5 - VREF | Precision output | 3.0 V regulated reference source; capable of sourcing up to 20 mA with <0.5% deviation |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB?
The LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB supports a maximum input voltage of 5.5 V, as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. Operation above this voltage risks permanent damage. The minimum input is VREF + 400 mV (3.4 V), ensuring proper regulation across its full 20 mA load range. This 3.4 V to 5.5 V window makes the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB compatible with common 3.3 V and 5 V system rails.
Does the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB require an output capacitor?
No, the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB is stable without an output capacitor, though a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor may be added to further reduce high-frequency noise. The datasheet explicitly states COUT is optional, distinguishing it from many legacy references that mandate output capacitance for stability. This simplifies layout and improves reliability in space-constrained designs.
What does the 'C' grade signify in LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB?
The 'C' in LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB denotes the accuracy grade: C-grade devices have ±0.2% initial output voltage accuracy and 20 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40°C to +125°C. This grade balances cost and performance for industrial applications where A-grade (±0.05%) is unnecessary but tighter tolerance than D/E grades is required.
Is the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB is AEC-Q100 qualified for Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C ambient), with HBM ESD rating of ±2000 V. It meets automotive reliability standards for under-hood and cabin modules, including thermal cycling, humidity testing, and long-term stability validation - confirmed in TI's official LM4132-Q1 product documentation.
How does the enable pin function on the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB?
The EN pin on the LM4132CMFX-3.0/NOPB is an active-high logic input. When pulled to ≥65% of VIN, the device operates normally; when ≤35% of VIN, it enters 3 µA shutdown mode. No external pull-up/down is required, and the threshold scales with input voltage - enabling robust operation across varying supply conditions without level-shifting circuitry.
