Product details
Overview
MAX6133AASA41+ from Maxim Integrated is a precision series voltage reference delivering 4.096V output with ±0.04% initial accuracy (max), 3ppm/°C temperature coefficient (max, -40°C to +125°C), and 200mV maximum dropout voltage - enabling stable operation in low-headroom battery-powered systems such as portable data loggers and handheld test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6133AASA41+ datasheet, MAX6133AASA41+ pinout, MAX6133AASA41+ application, or MAX6133AASA41+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 4.096V output tolerance over full industrial temperature range, ultra-low 45µA typical quiescent current, 15mA source capability, and SO-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX6133AASA41+ employs bandgap-based series-mode architecture with laser-trimmed thin-film resistors and post-package trimming to achieve high initial accuracy and low thermal drift. Its internal circuitry operates as a three-terminal active regulator, sourcing load current directly from the input supply while maintaining tight output regulation.
It features built-in stability with ≥0.1µF output capacitance, supports wide 4.2V–12.6V input range, and delivers low-noise performance (32µVP-P, 0.1Hz–10Hz) critical for high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing. Line regulation is specified at ≤40µV/V and load regulation at ≤0.08mV/mA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.096V ±0.04% (max) at +25°C - ensures 1LSB accuracy in 12-bit systems across full temperature range. |
| Tempco | 3ppm/°C (max, -40°C to +125°C) - enables ≤±0.5mV drift over 165°C span, suitable for precision instrumentation. |
| Dropout Voltage | 200mV (max) at 10mA load - allows operation from 4.2V supply while maintaining 4.096V output. |
| Quiescent Current | 45µA (typ) at +25°C - minimizes battery drain in always-on sensor nodes and portable meters. |
| Load Regulation | 0.08mV/mA (max) - maintains <±0.12mV error across full 15mA output range, supporting dynamic loads. |
| Noise (0.1–10Hz) | 32µVP-P - preserves SNR in 14-bit+ data converters without external filtering. |
| Line Regulation | 40µV/V (max) - rejects supply ripple up to 12.6V with minimal output perturbation. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6133AASA41+ is housed in an 8-pin SO (SOIC-N) package measuring 4.90mm × 3.90mm × 1.75mm (JEDEC MS-012). The device uses a standard SO-8 footprint with gull-wing leads and 1.27mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 7 | N.C. | No internal connection - must remain unconnected or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 2 | IN | Positive supply input (4.2V–12.6V); requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground reference - connect to clean system ground plane with low-inductance path. |
| 5, 8 | I.C. | Internally connected - no external connection permitted; floating or grounded pins may cause malfunction. |
| 6 | OUT | Stable 4.096V reference output - requires ≥0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low tempco grade | A-grade SO package guarantees ≤3ppm/°C drift over -40°C to +125°C - meets stringent industrial calibration requirements. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 45µA typical supply current - enables >10-year battery life in 10µA-average-power IoT sensors. |
| High output drive | 15mA source capability - directly drives ADC reference inputs, op-amp bias networks, and small DACs without buffering. |
| Wide input range | Operates from 4.2V to 12.6V - compatible with single Li-ion, dual alkaline, or regulated 5V/12V rails. |
| Low noise architecture | 32µVP-P (0.1–10Hz) - eliminates need for external RC filtering in precision 14-bit SAR ADC applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF5040AIDR | 4.096V, 3ppm/°C max, 100µA IQ, SO-8 - higher quiescent current and larger 100ppm thermal hysteresis. | Less suitable for battery-critical designs; better PSRR above 1kHz. | Select when higher power-supply rejection at switching frequencies is required and supply headroom exceeds 300mV. |
| ADR444BRZ | 4.096V, 3ppm/°C max, 750µA IQ, SO-8 - 17× higher quiescent current, superior long-term stability (25ppm/1000h). | Preferred for mains-powered lab equipment where stability outweighs power budget. | Choose for metrology-grade applications where 1000-hour drift must be <25ppm and supply current is unconstrained. |

FAQ
What is the guaranteed initial accuracy of MAX6133AASA41+ over temperature?
The MAX6133AASA41+ guarantees ±0.04% initial accuracy at +25°C and maintains ≤±0.08% total error over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. This specification is achieved through laser trimming and post-package adjustment, ensuring consistent performance without user calibration.
Can MAX6133AASA41+ operate from a 4.2V supply while delivering full 4.096V output?
Yes - MAX6133AASA41+ has a maximum dropout voltage of 200mV at 10mA load, meaning it regulates properly down to VIN = 4.296V. At 4.2V input, it sustains 4.096V output with ≤0.1% error under light loads, making it viable for single-cell Li-ion systems with aging or discharge effects.
What output capacitance is required for stability with MAX6133AASA41+?
MAX6133AASA41+ requires a minimum 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from OUT to GND for guaranteed stability. It remains stable with output capacitances up to 100µF, allowing designers to add bulk capacitance for improved transient response in high-dynamic-load applications.
How does the 3ppm/°C temperature coefficient of MAX6133AASA41+ impact 14-bit ADC performance?
Over a 165°C span (-40°C to +125°C), the 3ppm/°C tempco produces ≤±495ppm (≈±0.5mV) output drift at 4.096V - well within ±1LSB (≈0.25mV) for a 14-bit system with 4.096V full-scale range, preserving end-to-end accuracy without software compensation.
Is MAX6133AASA41+ pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6133 family?
Yes - all MAX6133 variants including MAX6133AASA41+, MAX6133AASA25+, and MAX6133AASA50+ share identical SO-8 pinout and electrical interface. Only the output voltage and grade-specific parameters (tempco, accuracy) differ; PCB layout is fully reusable across the family.
