Product details
Overview
LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision low-dropout (LDO) series voltage reference IC delivering a stable 4.096 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 to 5.5 V and supports up to 20 mA load current, enabling use in high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB datasheet, LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB pinout, LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB application, or LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 10 mA (175 mV typ), enable-controlled 3 µA shutdown mode, stability with low-ESR ceramic capacitors, and SOT-23-5 package compatibility for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB implements a CMOS band-gap architecture with EEPROM-based curvature and tempco correction, achieving laser-trimmed bipolar reference performance at lower cost. Its enable pin provides digital on/off control without external circuitry, and it requires only an input capacitor (CIN) - no output capacitor (COUT) needed for stability.
This device functions as a series reference, eliminating idle current waste inherent in shunt references. Its 400 mV max dropout across –40°C to 125°C and 25 ppm/mA load regulation support battery-powered systems where supply voltage sags under load, such as handheld test equipment and automotive sensor signal conditioning.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.096 V ±0.05% (A-grade); enables precise 12-bit DAC/ADC full-scale calibration |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C–85°C); ensures ≤±0.85 mV drift over industrial temperature range |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA typ; extends battery life in always-on monitoring nodes |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV typ at 10 mA; allows operation from 4.271 V input (e.g., single Li-ion cell) |

| Long-Term Stability | 50 ppm (1000 hrs); reduces recalibration frequency in field-deployed instruments |
Pinout & Package
LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB uses the SOT-23-5 (DBV) package (2.90 mm × 1.60 mm), with pin 1 unconnected (N/C), pin 2 as GND, pin 3 as EN, pin 4 as VIN, and pin 5 as VREF. The N/C pin must remain floating per datasheet specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 2 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Low-impedance return path for reference output; requires dedicated ground plane tie |
| 3 (EN) | Digital enable input | Active-high control: drives VREF into 3 µA shutdown when pulled low |
| 4 (VIN) | Input supply rail | Accepts 4.496 V to 5.5 V; minimum headroom defined by dropout spec |
| 5 (VREF) | Precision reference output | Delivers regulated 4.096 V; capable of sourcing up to 20 mA into resistive loads |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB?
The LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB delivers up to 20 mA of output current while maintaining specified accuracy and regulation. This capability eliminates the need for external buffer amplifiers in most 12–16 bit data acquisition systems. At 20 mA, dropout remains within 400 mV across –40°C to 125°C, and load regulation is 25 ppm/mA - ensuring predictable performance under varying load conditions.
Does the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB require an output capacitor for stability?
No, the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB is internally compensated and stable without an output capacitor. Only an input capacitor (CIN) is required per the datasheet. This simplifies layout, reduces bill-of-materials cost, and improves reliability in space-constrained applications such as handheld test gear and wearable medical devices where the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB is commonly deployed.
What is the enable pin logic threshold for the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB?
The LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB enable pin has a rail-to-rail compatible threshold: VIH ≥65% of VIN and VIL ≤35% of VIN, specified over –40°C to 125°C. This allows direct interfacing with 1.8 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V logic families without level-shifting circuitry. When EN is low, the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB enters 3 µA shutdown mode, making it ideal for duty-cycled sensing applications.
Is the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB qualified for automotive applications?
The LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB itself is not AEC-Q100 qualified; however, the pin-compatible LM4132-Q1 family includes automotive-grade variants (e.g., LM4132QDBVR41). Those parts meet AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C ambient) and HBM ESD Level 2. For non-automotive industrial or medical use, the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB provides identical electrical specs and SOT-23-5 packaging.
What is the long-term stability specification for the LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB?
The LM4132DMFX-4.1/NOPB exhibits 50 ppm maximum long-term stability after 1000 hours of operation at 25°C. This parameter reflects output voltage drift due to aging effects and is measured under controlled thermal conditions. In field applications like calibration equipment or laboratory instruments, this stability supports extended recalibration intervals and contributes to overall system measurement repeatability over time.
