Product details
Overview
TS4061AILT-1.225 from STMicroelectronics is a precision micropower shunt voltage reference delivering a fixed 1.225 V output with ±0.1% initial accuracy at 25 °C, ultra-low 10 µA operating current, and 35 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient over –40 to +85 °C. It enables high-accuracy analog signal conditioning in space-constrained, battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the TS4061AILT-1.225 datasheet, TS4061AILT-1.225 pinout, TS4061AILT-1.225 application, or TS4061AILT-1.225 equivalent, key selection criteria include shunt reference stability under capacitive loads, low-frequency noise (10 µVp-p), thermal hysteresis (120 ppm), static impedance (0.3 Ω max), and SOT23-3L package compatibility with portable PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The TS4061AILT-1.225 operates as a two-terminal shunt reference, sinking current to maintain a precise 1.225 V cathode-to-anode voltage. Its bandgap-derived core achieves ±0.1% tolerance at 25 °C and maintains regulation across 10 µA–15 mA operating current range.
It exhibits very low 10 µVp-p low-frequency noise (0.1–10 Hz) and stable performance with capacitive loads-critical for high-resolution ADC biasing and sensor excitation circuits where supply rejection and long-term drift matter.

|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.225 V; provides stable reference for 12-bit+ SAR ADCs and precision DACs |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.1% at 25 °C; ensures <1.23 mV absolute error without calibration |
| Operating Current | 10 µA typical at 25 °C; extends battery life in multi-year IoT sensor nodes |
| Tempco | ≤35 ppm/°C; limits drift to <2.9 mV over full –40 to +85 °C range |
| Low-Freq Noise | 10 µVp-p (0.1–10 Hz); avoids noise-induced quantization errors in µV-level measurements |
| Static Impedance | 0.3 Ω max; minimizes load-induced voltage shift in dynamic current-sink applications |
| Thermal Hysteresis | 120 ppm; guarantees repeatability after thermal cycling in field-deployed equipment |
Pinout & Package
TS4061AILT-1.225 is housed in a SOT23-3L package (3-pin, surface-mount, lead-free, ECOPACK® compliant). Pin 1 is Anode, Pin 2 is Cathode, and Pin 3 is NC (No Connect)-must be left unconnected or tied to Anode per datasheet guidance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Reference return path | Connects to system ground or low-impedance return; defines reference potential baseline |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Stable voltage output node | Sinks current to maintain 1.225 V; connects to ADC REF+, op-amp non-inverting input, or sensor bridge |
| NC (Pin 3) | Unused terminal | Must remain unconnected or tied to Anode; no internal connection or function |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 10 µA operation enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell-powered data loggers |
| Capacitive-load stability | No external compensation required up to 100 nF-simplifies layout in compact sensor modules |
| Industrial temperature range | –40 to +85 °C operation supports deployment in outdoor metering and factory-floor instrumentation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLVH431ACDBVR | Adjustable (1.24–18 V), ±0.5% initial accuracy, 80 µA min operating current | Requires external resistor divider; higher current draw reduces battery life | Choose when adjustable output or higher voltage (>1.25 V) is needed |
| REF3012AIDBZR | Series reference, 1.2 V output, ±0.2% accuracy, 50 µA quiescent current | Three-terminal architecture requires dedicated input supply rail; not shunt-compatible | Prefer only if series topology simplifies system power architecture |
Compared with TLVH431ACDBVR and REF3012AIDBZR, TS4061AILT-1.225 offers superior initial accuracy (±0.1% vs ±0.5%/±0.2%), lowest operating current (10 µA vs 80/50 µA), and true two-terminal simplicity-making it optimal for ultra-low-power, fixed-voltage shunt reference use cases where board space and battery longevity are critical.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating current required for regulation?
The TS4061AILT-1.225 requires a minimum operating current of 10 µA at 25 °C to maintain regulation, rising to 12 µA across the full –40 to +85 °C industrial temperature range. Below this threshold, output voltage deviates beyond specified tolerance, making it unsuitable for sub-10 µA ultra-low-power sleep modes without auxiliary biasing.
Can TS4061AILT-1.225 drive a 100 nF capacitive load?
Yes-the TS4061AILT-1.225 is explicitly characterized for stable operation with up to 100 nF capacitive loads, as confirmed by startup waveform testing in the datasheet (Figure 9). No series resistance or external compensation is required, simplifying design in sensor interfaces with filtering capacitance.
Is Pin 3 (NC) electrically connected internally?
No-Pin 3 is a no-connect terminal with no internal bond wire or silicon connection. The datasheet mandates it be left floating or tied to the Anode (Pin 1); connecting it to any other potential may cause undefined behavior or damage due to unintended current paths.
How does thermal hysteresis affect long-term calibration stability?
Thermal hysteresis of 120 ppm means the output voltage may shift up to 148 µV after cycling between –40 °C and +85 °C and returning to 25 °C. This is a non-cumulative, repeatable offset-not drift-and must be accounted for in systems requiring recalibration-free operation over extended field life.
