Product details
Overview
LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision low-dropout (LDO) series voltage reference IC delivering a stable 3.3 V output with 0.05% initial accuracy (A-grade), 10 ppm/°C temperature coefficient (0°C to 85°C), and 60 µA quiescent current - used in high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing, portable instrumentation, and battery-powered test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB datasheet, LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB pinout, LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB application, or LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, SOT-23-5 package details, enable-controlled shutdown functionality, thermal hysteresis (75 ppm), and validated alternatives for precision analog signal chains.
Technical Context
The LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB implements a CMOS band-gap architecture with EEPROM-based curvature and tempco correction, enabling laser-trimmed-level performance without laser trimming. It operates as a 3.3 V series reference with internal enable logic and no requirement for an output capacitor.
Its LDO architecture supports input voltages from (VREF + 400 mV) = 3.7 V up to 5.5 V, delivers up to 20 mA load current, and achieves 175 mV dropout at 10 mA - making it suitable for space-constrained, low-power systems where supply headroom is limited.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±0.05% (A-grade), enabling direct interface with 3.3 V ADCs and DACs without gain calibration |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C to 85°C), ensuring ≤±0.825 mV drift over industrial temperature range |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA typical, supporting >1-year battery life in 10 µA-systems with intermittent operation |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV at 10 mA load, allowing operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.7 V min) or regulated 3.7 V rails |
| Enable Function | EN pin reduces supply current to 3 µA in shutdown, enabling power-gating in multi-rail sensor nodes |
| Output Noise | 310 µVPP (0.1–10 Hz), suitable for 16-bit+ data acquisition without external filtering |
| Long-Term Stability | 50 ppm over 1000 hours, reducing recalibration frequency in field-deployed instrumentation |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, 0.95 mm height, gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant, tape-and-reel packaging.

|---|---|---|
| 1 - N/C | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected; floating per datasheet - no PCB trace or pad required |
| 2 - GND | Analog ground reference | Low-impedance return path for reference output; requires dedicated ground plane connection |
| 3 - EN | Digital enable input | Active-high logic: VIH ≥65% VIN enables output; VIL ≤35% VIN enters 3 µA shutdown |
| 4 - VIN | Input supply rail | Accepts 3.7 V to 5.5 V; minimum headroom defined by dropout spec (175 mV @ 10 mA) |
| 5 - VREF | Precision output terminal | 3.3 V reference source; stable into capacitive loads; no output capacitor required |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF3333AIDBVR | 3.3 V, 30 ppm/°C max tempco (–40°C to +125°C), 3.8 µA quiescent current, no enable pin | Lacks enable control; lower IQ but higher tempco limits use in wide-temperature industrial sensors | Select when ultra-low power dominates over tempco; verify line/load regulation meets system LSB error budget |
| ADR3433ARJZ-R7 | 3.3 V, 10 ppm/°C max tempco, 120 µA IQ, no enable, ±0.1% initial accuracy (B-grade) | Higher quiescent current and looser initial accuracy; requires external enable circuitry for shutdown | Choose when footprint compatibility with SOT-23-5 is needed but enable function is implemented externally |
Compared with LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB, REF3333AIDBVR offers lower IQ but sacrifices tempco and enable functionality, while ADR3433ARJZ-R7 matches tempco but lacks integrated enable and has higher IQ - making LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB optimal for compact, enable-controlled, wide-temp precision references.

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB?
The LM4132EMF-3.3/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, directly driving ADC reference inputs and op-amp bias networks. The device sustains this current across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) and input voltage range (3.7 V to 5.5 V).
Does the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB require an output capacitor for stability?
No, the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB is internally compensated and remains stable without an output capacitor - a key differentiator from many competing references. This simplifies PCB layout, reduces BOM cost, and avoids potential phase-margin degradation caused by capacitor ESR/ESL. A bypass capacitor on VIN (CIN) is mandatory, but COUT is strictly optional and not required for stability.
How does the enable pin (EN) function on the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB?
The EN pin on the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB is an active-high digital control input. When pulled to ≥65% of VIN, the device operates normally with 60 µA supply current. When pulled to ≤35% of VIN, it enters shutdown mode drawing only 3 µA. This feature enables precise power sequencing and ultra-low-power sleep states in battery-operated systems without external MOSFET switches.
What is the dropout voltage specification for the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB?
The LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB has a typical dropout voltage of 175 mV at 10 mA load and 25°C, with a maximum of 400 mV across –40°C to +125°C. This means the device regulates properly with VIN as low as 3.475 V (3.3 V + 175 mV) under nominal conditions - enabling direct operation from single-cell Li-ion batteries or low-headroom LDO outputs.
Is the LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB suitable for automotive applications?
The LM4132EMF-3.3/NOPB itself is not AEC-Q100 qualified; however, the pin-compatible LM4132-3.3-Q1 variant is certified for automotive Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C ambient) and shares identical electrical specifications except for tighter production screening and enhanced ESD robustness. For automotive BMS or ADAS sensor modules, LM4132-3.3-Q1 is the designated qualified alternative.
