LM4041
Precision Micropower Shunt Voltage Reference
General Description
Key Specifications (LM4041-1.2)
Ideal for space critical applications, the LM4041 precision
voltage reference is available in the sub-miniature SC70 and
SOT-23 surface-mount packages. The LM4041’s advanced
design eliminates the need for an external stabilizing capaci-
tor while ensuring stability with any capacitive load, thus
making the LM4041 easy to use. Further reducing design
effort is the availability of a fixed (1.225V) and adjustable
reverse breakdown voltage. The minimum operating current
is 60 µA for the LM4041-1.2 and the LM4041-ADJ. Both
versions have a maximum operating current of 12 mA.
