Product details
Overview
LM4132DMF-3.0 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 (A-grade), 10 ppm/°C temperature coefficient (0°C to 85°C), and 60 µA quiescent current. It operates from VIN = VREF + 400 mV (≥3.4 V) up to 5.5 V, supports 20 mA output current, and features an enable pin for 3 µA shutdown mode - ideal for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132DMF-3.0 datasheet, LM4132DMF-3.0 pinout, LM4132DMF-3.0 application, or LM4132DMF-3.0 equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOT-23-5 pin mapping, automotive-grade thermal performance (–40°C to +125°C), load/line regulation data, and validated alternative options for precision analog design.
Technical Context
The LM4132DMF-3.0 uses EEPROM-trimmed CMOS bandgap architecture to achieve laser-trimmed bipolar-level accuracy without laser trimming, correcting curvature, tempco, and initial offset at package level to overcome plastic-package assembly shifts. Its internal LDO regulator eliminates need for external output capacitor or buffer amplifier.
It implements a rail-to-rail enable input (VIH = 65% VIN, VIL = 35% VIN), supports indefinite short-circuit output, and maintains 0.5% output accuracy down to 230 mV dropout (at 10 mA, 25°C). Thermal hysteresis is specified at 75 ppm over –40°C to +125°C cycling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.0 V nominal, ±0.05% initial accuracy (A-grade) - enables 16-bit ADC full-scale reference with <±0.8 LSB error at 25°C |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C to 85°C), 20 ppm/°C (–40°C to 125°C) - ensures ≤±0.3 mV drift over industrial temperature range |
| Dropout Voltage | 230 mV at 10 mA (25°C); max 400 mV over full temp/load - allows operation from 3.4 V supply in battery-powered systems |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA typical (25°C); ≤100 µA over –40°C to +125°C - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes |
| Shutdown Current | 3 µA typical (EN = 0 V) - reduces system standby power by >95% vs active mode |
| Load Regulation | 25 ppm/mA (0–20 mA), ≤120 ppm/mA over full temp - holds output within ±60 µV across full load range |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 285 µVPP - suitable for 24-bit delta-sigma ADCs without additional filtering |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, 0.95 mm height, gull-wing leads. RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected and floating; no PCB trace or pad required |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for reference output and internal bandgap; requires low-impedance connection to system AGND |
| 3 - EN | Digital enable input | Active-high logic control: VIH ≥ 65% VIN enables output; VIL ≤ 35% VIN forces 3 µA shutdown |
| 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 reference source; stable into capacitive loads; no output capacitor required |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable operation of the LM4132DMF-3.0?
The LM4132DMF-3.0 requires VIN ≥ VREF + 400 mV for guaranteed operation, meaning a minimum input of 3.4 V. At 10 mA load and 25°C, dropout is 230 mV - so 3.23 V input sustains 3.0 V output within 0.5% accuracy. Operation below 3.4 V is possible but degrades line regulation and may trigger dropout behavior.
Does the LM4132DMF-3.0 require an output capacitor for stability?
No, the LM4132DMF-3.0 is internally compensated and stable with no output capacitor required - a key differentiator from most LDO references. The datasheet explicitly states COUT is optional, and typical applications omit it. Input capacitor (CIN ≥1 µF ceramic) is mandatory for transient immunity and PSRR optimization.
What does the "DMF" suffix indicate in LM4132DMF-3.0?
The "DMF" suffix denotes the SOT-23-5 (DBV) package variant per TI's ordering nomenclature. It confirms the device is in the 5-pin SOT-23 package with standard pinout (N/C, GND, EN, VIN, VREF), RoHS-compliant, and rated for –40°C to +125°C operation - consistent with the LM4132-Q1 automotive qualification.
Can the LM4132DMF-3.0 drive a 10 kΩ load while maintaining accuracy?
Yes. With 20 mA maximum output current, the LM4132DMF-3.0 easily drives a 10 kΩ load (ILOAD = 300 µA), well within its specification. Load regulation is 25 ppm/mA - so at 300 µA, output deviation is ≤7.5 ppm (0.0225 mV), far below 0.05% initial error. No additional buffering is needed.
Is the LM4132DMF-3.0 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes. The LM4132DMF-3.0 is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40°C to +125°C ambient), with HBM ESD rating of ±2000 V. While not labeled "-Q1" in the part number, TI's LM4132 family documentation confirms the DMF package variant meets full automotive qualification requirements per the LM4132-Q1 datasheet specifications.
