Product details
Overview
X60003CIG3Z-41 from Intersil is a precision 4.096V floating-gate analog (FGA™) voltage reference in 3-lead SOT-23 package, delivering ±2.5mV initial accuracy, 20ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and ultra-low 500nA supply current for high-resolution data acquisition systems operating from 4.5V to 9.0V input.
For engineers reviewing the X60003CIG3Z-41 datasheet, X60003CIG3Z-41 pinout, X60003CIG3Z-41 application, or X60003CIG3Z-41 equivalent, key selection criteria include nanoscale power budgeting in battery-powered ADCs, thermal hysteresis ≤150ppm, long-term stability of 50ppm over time, and compatibility with 0.001µF output capacitance for noise reduction.
Technical Context
The X60003CIG3Z-41 uses proprietary Floating Gate Analog technology to generate a stable 4.096V reference without bandgap or buried zener structures, enabling sub-1µV/mA load regulation and 100mV dropout at no load. Its CMOS-based buffer supports ±10mA sourcing/sinking while maintaining low noise (30µVP-P, 0.1Hz–10Hz).
Designed for industrial-grade operation from –40°C to +85°C, it features 5kV HBM ESD protection, 150µV/V line regulation, and thermal hysteresis of 150ppm - all achieved with no external components beyond minimal decoupling capacitors (0.001µF typical).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 4.096V ±2.5mV at +25°C - enables direct interface with 12–24-bit ADCs using standard 4.096V full-scale coding. |
| Supply Current | 500nA typical - allows continuous biasing in coin-cell-powered systems for zero wake-up delay and minimized long-term drift. |
| Tempco | 20ppm/°C - ensures ≤1.024mV total drift across –40°C to +85°C, critical for calibration-grade portable instruments. |
| Input Range | 4.5V to 9.0V - supports single-supply operation from Li-ion batteries (3.7V nominal with boost) or industrial 5V/6V rails. |
| Noise (0.1–10Hz) | 30µVP-P - meets requirements for 16-bit+ precision measurement without additional filtering circuitry. |
| Load Regulation | 10–50µV/mA sourcing - maintains <0.001% gain error in precision current sources up to 10mA output. |
| Long-Term Stability | 50ppm (1000h) - guarantees <0.205mV output shift after one year, essential for unattended sensor nodes and metrology tools. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 3-lead SOT-23 (RoHS-compliant, JEDEC TO-236, P3.064 outline), 2.37mm × 2.92mm × 0.95mm, thermal resistance θJA = 275°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Power Supply Input | Accepts 4.5V–9.0V DC; internal regulator rejects ripple up to 150µV/V - eliminates need for LDO pre-regulation in noisy environments. |
| 2 (VOUT) | Voltage Reference Output | Provides buffered 4.096V with 10mA sink/source capability; requires ≥0.001µF ceramic capacitor for stability and noise control. |
| 3 (GND) | Analog Ground Reference | Must be connected to clean, low-impedance analog ground plane; separation from digital ground prevents <10µV coupling into reference path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| FGA™ Technology | Eliminates traditional bandgap/zener limitations - enables programmable reference voltages and near-zero supply current without sacrificing accuracy. |
| Nanoscale Power Consumption | 500nA supply current allows permanent enable in battery-operated systems, removing turn-on settling delay (7ms typical) from measurement timing. |
| Low Thermal Hysteresis | 150ppm after –40°C ↔ +85°C cycling - preserves calibration integrity in field-deployed equipment subjected to ambient temperature swings. |
| High ESD Robustness | 5kV HBM rating - withstands handling and board assembly without guard rings or external protection diodes. |
| Minimal External Components | Operates with only 0.001µF output capacitor - reduces BOM count and PCB area vs. references requiring multiple bypass caps or compensation networks. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| REF3040AIDBZR | 4.096V, ±1.5mV initial accuracy, 50ppm/°C, 50µA supply current - higher power, lower accuracy grade than X60003CIG3Z-41. | Suitable for non-battery applications where 50µA is acceptable; lacks FGA™ long-term stability (100ppm/1000h vs. 50ppm). | Select when lower cost and wider distributor availability outweigh nanoscale power and superior aging performance. |
| ADR3440ARJZ-R7 | 4.096V, ±2mV initial accuracy, 10ppm/°C, 120µA supply current - tighter tempco but 240× higher current than X60003CIG3Z-41. | Preferred in temperature-stable lab equipment; unsuitable for >1-year battery life targets due to current draw. | Choose when thermal environment is tightly controlled and 10ppm/°C is mandatory, accepting trade-off in power consumption. |
Compared with REF3040AIDBZR and ADR3440ARJZ-R7, the X60003CIG3Z-41 uniquely delivers 4.096V precision at 500nA - enabling decade-long battery life in remote sensors where alternatives consume >100× more current and exhibit faster long-term drift.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage for X60003CIG3Z-41?
The absolute maximum VIN to GND rating for X60003CIG3Z-41 is +10V, but the recommended operating input voltage range is 4.5V to 9.0V per the datasheet. Exceeding 9.0V may increase supply current nonlinearly and accelerate long-term drift; operation above 10V risks permanent damage to the internal FGA cell structure.
Does X60003CIG3Z-41 require an external capacitor on VOUT?
Yes, X60003CIG3Z-41 requires a minimum 0.001µF ceramic capacitor on VOUT for stability and noise reduction. Without it, output impedance rises above 100Ω at 1kHz, increasing susceptibility to PCB noise and degrading 30µVP-P low-frequency noise performance. Larger capacitors (e.g., 0.01µF + 2kΩ series resistor) further reduce broadband noise to <40µVP-P.
How does X60003CIG3Z-41 achieve such low supply current?
X60003CIG3Z-41 achieves 500nA typical supply current via Intersil's proprietary Floating Gate Analog (FGA™) technology, which stores precise charge on an isolated gate during fabrication - eliminating continuous bias current needed in bandgap or zener references. The output buffer operates in deep subthreshold CMOS mode, drawing current only for gate leakage and output loading.
Can X60003CIG3Z-41 drive a 10mA load directly?
Yes, X60003CIG3Z-41 is rated for ±10mA source/sink current. At 10mA sourcing, load regulation is ≤50µV/mA - resulting in ≤0.5mV output shift. However, dropout voltage increases to ~300mV at full load, so ensure VIN ≥ VOUT + 300mV (i.e., ≥4.396V) to maintain regulation. For sustained 10mA loads, verify junction temperature remains below +107°C.
Is X60003CIG3Z-41 sensitive to X-ray exposure?
Yes, X60003CIG3Z-41 is highly sensitive to X-ray exposure - doses as low as 10mRem can cause >10mV output shift. Post-assembly X-ray inspection must be avoided or shielded with ≥300µm zinc foil. Airport luggage scanners (especially checked baggage) pose cumulative risk; mounting behind two copper layers reduces dose by >90%, preserving initial accuracy.
