Product details
Overview
MAX6041BEUR+T from Analog Devices is a precision series-mode voltage reference IC delivering 4.096V output with ±0.2% initial accuracy, <20ppm/°C temperature coefficient over –40°C to +85°C, and 100mV dropout at 500μA load current. It operates from (VOUT + 0.2V) to 12.6V input, draws only 27–35μA quiescent current, and supports bidirectional 500μA load current - ideal for high-accuracy ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6041BEUR+T datasheet, MAX6041BEUR+T pinout, MAX6041BEUR+T application, or MAX6041BEUR+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 4.096V output tolerance, ultra-low supply current variation (0.8μA/V), stable operation with 0–2.2nF capacitive loads, and SOT23-3 footprint compatibility for space-constrained PCBs.
Technical Context
This device uses a proprietary curvature-correction circuit and laser-trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve <20ppm/°C TC and ±0.2% initial accuracy across –40°C to +85°C. Its series-mode architecture eliminates external bias resistors and compensation capacitors required by shunt references.
It features internal compensation, delivers 0.15μV/μA sourcing load regulation and 0.20μV/μA sinking load regulation, and maintains stability without external components across its full 0–2.2nF capacitive load range - enabling direct connection to SAR ADC reference inputs and low-noise op-amp bias networks.
Key Specifications

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the guaranteed initial accuracy of the MAX6041BEUR+T?
The MAX6041BEUR+T guarantees ±0.2% initial accuracy at +25°C, corresponding to a 4.096V output tolerance of ±8.2mV (4.088V to 4.104V). This specification is production-tested and applies across the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range per the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table for MAX6041.
Does the MAX6041BEUR+T require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, the MAX6041BEUR+T is internally compensated and stable with output capacitance ranging from 0 to 2.2nF - including zero capacitance. An external capacitor is optional and used only to improve transient response during load or supply steps; it is not required for basic DC regulation or frequency stability.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the MAX6041BEUR+T to maintain regulation?
The MAX6041BEUR+T requires a minimum input voltage of VOUT + 0.2V = 4.296V to maintain regulation under all conditions. At 500μA load current, the dropout voltage is specified as 100mV (max), meaning regulation is sustained as long as VIN ≥ 4.196V - but the guaranteed operational minimum is 4.296V per the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables.
Can the MAX6041BEUR+T both source and sink load current?
Yes, the MAX6041BEUR+T can source up to +500μA and sink up to –500μA from its OUT pin. This bidirectional capability enables direct interfacing with op-amp inputs, ADC reference buffers, and active filter networks without external level-shifting or current-steering components.
What is the temperature coefficient specification for the MAX6041BEUR+T over its full operating range?
The MAX6041BEUR+T has a maximum temperature coefficient of 20ppm/°C over the full –40°C to +85°C operating range. At the more restricted 0°C to +70°C range, the TC is further tightened to 15ppm/°C maximum - verified via the "box method" per Note 2 in the datasheet.
