Product details
Overview
TS4061BILT-1.225 from STMicroelectronics is a precision micropower shunt voltage reference delivering a fixed 1.225 V output with ±0.2% initial accuracy at 25 °C, 35 ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and ultra-low 10 µA operating current. It operates across –40 to +85 °C and is used in battery-powered instrumentation for stable low-current biasing.
For engineers reviewing the TS4061BILT-1.225 datasheet, TS4061BILT-1.225 pinout, TS4061BILT-1.225 application, or TS4061BILT-1.225 equivalent, key selection criteria include shunt reference stability under capacitive loads, low-frequency noise (10 µVp-p), thermal hysteresis (120 ppm), and SOT23-3L package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The TS4061BILT-1.225 functions as a two-terminal shunt reference, sinking current to maintain a precise 1.225 V cathode-to-anode voltage. Its operation requires an external current source and supports regulation down to 10 µA minimum operating current, with static impedance of 0.15–0.3 Ω and thermal hysteresis of 120 ppm.
It exhibits low-frequency noise of 10 µVp-p (0.1–10 Hz) and wideband noise of 95 µVRMS (10 Hz–10 kHz), and remains stable with capacitive loads-no series resistance required. Temperature coefficient is guaranteed ≤35 ppm/°C over –40 to +85 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.225 V; enables direct replacement of 1.2 V references in ADC/DAC bias networks without resistor scaling. |
| Initial Accuracy | ±0.2% at 25 °C; ensures <2.45 mV absolute error in precision sensor signal conditioning paths. |
| Tempco | ≤35 ppm/°C; contributes <3.0 mV max drift over full industrial range, critical for uncalibrated portable meters. |
| Operating Current | 10 µA min / 15 mA max; allows operation from high-impedance dividers or microcontroller GPIO pins. |
| Low-Freq Noise | 10 µVp-p (0.1–10 Hz); preserves SNR in 24-bit delta-sigma ADC front-ends. |
| Static Impedance | 0.15–0.3 Ω; minimizes load-induced voltage shift in multi-channel reference distribution. |
Pinout & Package
TS4061BILT-1.225 is supplied in the SOT23-3L package-a 3-pin, surface-mount, lead-free, RoHS-compliant outline measuring 2.80–3.04 mm × 2.10–2.64 mm × 0.89–1.12 mm (height).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Reference return path | Connected to system ground; must be low-impedance to avoid regulation error from IR drop. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Stable voltage output node | Provides 1.225 V referenced to Anode; sinks all operating current; connects to load and bias resistors. |
| NC (Pin 3) | No-connect terminal | Must remain unconnected or tied to Anode per datasheet; no internal connection-omitting trace saves layout area. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low operating current | 10 µA typical at 25 °C enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell-powered data loggers. |
| Capacitive-load stability | No external compensation needed up to 100 nF; simplifies layout in noisy mixed-signal PCBs. |
| Low thermal hysteresis | 120 ppm ensures repeatable voltage after thermal cycling-critical for field-deployed calibration equipment. |
| Low LF noise performance | 10 µVp-p (0.1–10 Hz) supports sub-16-bit effective resolution in precision weigh-scale amplifiers. |

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 (2.5 V min), ±0.5% initial accuracy, 100 µA min operating current | Requires external resistor divider; higher current increases power in energy-harvesting nodes | Select when adjustable output or higher voltage (>1.225 V) is required; not drop-in for fixed 1.225 V use. |
| REF3012AIDBZR | Fixed 1.2 V, ±0.2% accuracy, 50 µA operating current, 50 ppm/°C tempco | Higher current draw reduces battery life; 1.2 V output requires gain adjustment in existing 1.225 V designs | Choose if 1.2 V matches system DAC/ADC reference; verify 1.225 → 1.2 V offset impact on calibration. |
Compared with TLVH431ACDBVR and REF3012AIDBZR, TS4061BILT-1.225 offers the lowest operating current (10 µA) and exact 1.225 V output-making it optimal for legacy designs targeting that voltage and ultra-low-power constraints where every microamp matters.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating current required for regulation?
The TS4061BILT-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 range. Below this threshold, output voltage deviates nonlinearly and cannot be guaranteed within datasheet specifications.
Can TS4061BILT-1.225 drive a 100 nF capacitive load directly?
Yes-the device is explicitly characterized and stable with up to 100 nF capacitive loads without external series resistance or compensation. Figure 9 in the datasheet confirms clean start-up waveforms under this condition, making it suitable for filtering-sensitive ADC reference inputs.
Is Pin 3 (NC) electrically connected internally?
No-Pin 3 is a true no-connect terminal with no internal bond wire or silicon connection. The datasheet states it "must be left unconnected or connected to anode"; tying it to Anode is permissible for mechanical reinforcement but adds no electrical function.
How does thermal hysteresis affect calibration stability?
Thermal hysteresis is specified at 120 ppm-meaning voltage measured at 25 °C after cycling to –40 °C differs from voltage measured at 25 °C after cycling to +85 °C by up to 147 µV. This impacts recalibration intervals in field instruments where ambient temperature swings occur repeatedly.
