Product details
Overview
The MAX6133BASA41+T from Maxim Integrated is a precision series voltage reference delivering 4.096V output with ±0.08% initial accuracy, 5ppm/°C max temperature coefficient (−40°C to +125°C), and 200mV max dropout voltage. It operates from 4.2V to 12.6V supply, draws only 45µA typical quiescent current, and supports up to 15mA source current - ideal for high-resolution ADC/DAC biasing in portable instrumentation and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6133BASA41+T datasheet, MAX6133BASA41+T pinout, MAX6133BASA41+T application, or MAX6133BASA41+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed initial accuracy over temperature, low-noise performance (32µVP-P, 0.1Hz–10Hz), load regulation (0.08mV/mA), and SO-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX6133BASA41+T is a bandgap-based series-mode voltage reference using laser-trimmed thin-film resistors and post-package trimming to achieve ±0.08% initial accuracy and 5ppm/°C tempco over −40°C to +125°C. Its architecture eliminates external compensation components and enables stable operation with 0.1µF to 100µF output capacitance.
It features ultra-low quiescent current (45µA typ at +25°C, ≤85µA over full temperature range), wide input range (4.2V–12.6V), and robust line regulation (≤40µV/V) - enabling direct integration into battery-powered and wide-input industrial power rails without additional regulators.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.096V ±0.08% at +25°C - ensures precise scaling for 12-bit and 16-bit data converters requiring exact VREF alignment. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.08% max (B grade, SO package) - eliminates need for system-level calibration in factory-set instruments. |
| Tempco | 5ppm/°C max (−40°C to +125°C) - maintains <1LSB error across extended industrial temperature range for 14-bit systems. |
| Dropout Voltage | 200mV max at 10mA load - allows operation from 4.2V supply while delivering stable 4.096V reference. |
| Quiescent Current | 45µA typ at +25°C, ≤85µA max over temperature - extends battery life in handheld meters and sensor nodes. |
| Output Noise | 32µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz), 22µVRMS (10Hz–1kHz) - preserves SNR in precision analog signal chains. |
| Load Regulation | 0.08mV/mA max - ensures <0.02% output shift across full 15mA sourcing range, critical for dynamic load DAC buffers. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6133BASA41+T is housed in an 8-pin SO (SOIC-N) package per JEDEC MS-012, with 150-mil body width, 1.27mm pitch, and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or notch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 7 | No Connection (N.C.) | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND - no routing or trace required. |
| 2 | IN | Positive supply input; requires ≥4.2V min; decoupling capacitor (0.1µF ceramic) recommended adjacent to pin. |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground reference; must connect to clean, low-impedance system ground plane. |
| 5, 8 | I.C. | Internally connected; do not route externally - avoid solder bridges or test points. |
| 6 | OUT | Stable 4.096V reference output; requires ≥0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-tempco precision | 5ppm/°C max over −40°C to +125°C - meets tight drift requirements for process transmitters and calibration equipment. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 45µA typical - enables multi-year operation from coin-cell batteries in portable test gear. |
| Wide supply range | 4.2V to 12.6V input - eliminates need for pre-regulation when powered from 5V or 12V system rails. |
| High output drive | 15mA source capability - directly drives ADC reference inputs, op-amp gain stages, and DAC buffers without external buffers. |
| Low-noise architecture | 32µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) - minimizes quantization noise floor degradation in 16-bit+ data acquisition systems. |

|---|---|---|---|
| ADR444BRZ | 4.096V, ±0.04% initial accuracy, 3ppm/°C tempco, 1.2mA quiescent current, SO-8 | Higher accuracy and lower tempco, but 27× higher supply current limits battery use | Select for metrology-grade calibration where power is secondary to drift performance |

FAQ
What is the maximum load current supported by the MAX6133BASA41+T?
The MAX6133BASA41+T supports up to 15mA of output source current while maintaining specified accuracy and regulation. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Output Source-Current Capability" and validated across −40°C to +125°C. Exceeding 15mA may degrade output voltage stability and increase dropout voltage beyond the 200mV maximum spec.
Does the MAX6133BASA41+T require an input bypass capacitor?
Yes - a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to the IN pin (Pin 2) is recommended for optimal line-transient performance, per the Applications Information section. While the device remains functional without it, omitting this capacitor increases susceptibility to supply noise and degrades PSRR, especially above 10kHz. The capacitor must be rated for ≥16V DC.
What is the thermal hysteresis specification for the MAX6133BASA41+T?
The MAX6133BASA41+T exhibits 120ppm thermal hysteresis, defined as the change in output voltage at +25°C before and after cycling between −40°C and +125°C. This value is identical for both SO and µMAX packages and is measured per Note 3 in the datasheet. It reflects mechanical stress effects on the bandgap core and contributes to total system uncertainty in cyclic thermal environments.
Can the MAX6133BASA41+T be used with output capacitors larger than 0.1µF?
Yes - the MAX6133BASA41+T is stable with output capacitance ranging from 0.1µF to 100µF, including ceramic, tantalum, and aluminum electrolytic types. Larger capacitors (e.g., 10µF) improve transient response to step-load changes, as shown in Typical Operating Characteristics Figure toc16. However, turn-on settling time increases proportionally, reaching ~800µs for 10µF versus ~600µs for 0.1µF at 4.096V output.
How does the MAX6133BASA41+T compare to the A-grade version (MAX6133AASA41+T)?
The MAX6133BASA41+T has ±0.08% initial accuracy and 5ppm/°C max tempco, whereas the A-grade MAX6133AASA41+T offers ±0.04% initial accuracy and 3ppm/°C max tempco - both in SO-8 packages. The B grade trades tighter specifications for cost efficiency while retaining identical pinout, supply range, noise, and output drive. Use the B grade where 0.04% tolerance margin is sufficient for system-level accuracy budgets.
