Product details
Overview
LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a precision low-dropout (LDO) series voltage reference IC delivering a stable 2.048 V output with ±0.05% initial accuracy (Grade A), 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 automotive sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB datasheet, LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB pinout, LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB application, or LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage (175 mV at 10 mA), enable-controlled shutdown (3 µA), load regulation (25 ppm/mA), and SOT-23-5 compatibility with ceramic capacitors only.
Technical Context
The LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB implements a CMOS band-gap architecture with EEPROM-based curvature and tempco correction, enabling laser-trimmed-level precision without laser trimming. It operates as a series reference with internal error amplifier and pass element, supporting up to 20 mA output current without requiring an output capacitor.
Its enable pin provides digital control of output state, with VIH = 65% VIN and VIL = 35% VIN thresholds, and it maintains regulation over input voltages from VREF + 400 mV (2.448 V) to 5.5 V - making it suitable for single-cell Li-ion and dual-cell alkaline battery-powered systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.048 V ±0.05% (Grade A) - matches common 12-bit DAC/ADC full-scale scaling ratios (e.g., 2.048 V = 1 LSB × 4096) |
| Tempco | 10 ppm/°C (0°C to 85°C) - ensures ≤0.085% output drift across industrial temperature range |
| Dropout Voltage | 175 mV at 10 mA - enables operation from 2.448 V input, compatible with 2.5 V or 2.7 V LDOs or batteries |
| Quiescent Current | 60 µA - supports >1-year battery life in 10 µA sleep-mode systems with periodic wake-up sampling |
| Shutdown Current | 3 µA - reduces system standby power by >95% vs active mode when EN = low |
| Load Regulation | 25 ppm/mA - guarantees <50 µV shift over 0–20 mA load, critical for ratiometric sensor bridges |
| Noise (0.1–10 Hz) | 190 µVPP - limits quantization uncertainty to <0.1 LSB in 16-bit 2.048 V-range ADCs |
Pinout & Package
LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB uses the DBV (SOT-23-5) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, 0.95 mm height, gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is marked with dot; Pin 3 is EN (active-high); Pin 1 is N/C (no connect, must float).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (N/C) | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or pull-up/down |
| Pin 2 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Low-impedance return path for reference core; requires dedicated ground plane tie near device |
| Pin 3 (EN) | Digital enable input | Active-high logic control; drives output to high-Z when low; VIH = 65% VIN, VIL = 35% VIN |
| Pin 4 (VIN) | Input supply | Accepts 2.448 V to 5.5 V; bypass with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor close to pin |
| Pin 5 (VREF) | Precision output | 2.048 V source; stable into 20 mA load; no output capacitor required per design |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| EEPROM-trimmed curvature compensation | Eliminates need for external calibration; achieves 0.05% initial accuracy without laser trimming |
| Enable-controlled shutdown | Reduces supply current to 3 µA - enables microcontroller-gated power cycling in data loggers |
| Capacitor-free output stability | Operates stably with no COUT required - saves board space and avoids capacitor aging drift |
| Low-ESR ceramic input support | Stable with standard X7R/X5R 1 µF MLCCs - avoids costly tantalum or polymer capacitors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF3020AIDBZR | 2.048 V, 0.1% initial accuracy, 50 ppm/°C tempco, no enable pin, 50 µA IQ | Lacks shutdown control; higher tempco increases drift in wide-temp environments | Choose when enable functionality is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs drift performance |
| ADR3420ARJZ-R7 | 2.048 V, 0.1% initial accuracy, 10 ppm/°C tempco, no enable, 120 µA IQ, 300 mV dropout | Higher quiescent current and dropout limit battery runtime and low-voltage operation | Prefer when ultra-low noise (12 µVRMS) is prioritized over power and dropout constraints |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB is 6 V. However, the recommended operating maximum is 5.5 V. Exceeding 5.5 V may degrade long-term reliability or trigger overvoltage protection in adjacent circuitry. The device functions correctly down to VIN = VREF + 400 mV (2.448 V), making LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB ideal for single-supply battery interfaces where headroom is constrained.
Does LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB require an output capacitor for stability?
No, LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB is designed to be stable without an output capacitor - a key differentiator from most LDO references. TI's internal compensation eliminates the need for COUT, reducing BOM count and avoiding capacitor-related drift or aging effects. An input capacitor (≥1 µF ceramic) is mandatory at VIN to suppress supply noise and ensure transient response integrity.
What does the 'E' grade signify in LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB?
The 'E' in LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB denotes the device grade - specifically, Grade E with ±0.5% initial output voltage accuracy and 30 ppm/°C temperature coefficient (–40°C to +125°C). This contrasts with Grade A (±0.05%, 10 ppm/°C) and Grade B (±0.1%, 20 ppm/°C). LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB is therefore optimized for cost-sensitive applications where moderate precision suffices.
Can LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB drive a 20 mA load continuously?
Yes, LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB is rated for continuous 20 mA output current across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). Thermal derating is not required at 20 mA in still air with standard PCB copper; junction temperature remains within limits due to its low 60 µA quiescent current and SOT-23-5 package's 164.1°C/W θJA. For sustained 20 mA loads above 85°C ambient, minor layout enhancements (e.g., thermal vias) are recommended.
Is LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB qualified for automotive use?
LM4132EMFX-2.0/NOPB is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Only the LM4132-Q1 variants (e.g., LM4132AMFXT-2.0/NOPB-Q1) carry AEC-Q100 Grade 1 certification (–40°C to +125°C). The 'E' grade non-Q1 version is intended for industrial and commercial applications. For automotive designs, engineers must select the Q1-suffix part number to meet functional safety and qualification requirements.
