Improved Precision Micropower
Shunt Voltage Reference
General Description
Features
The LM4041 is a precision two-terminal shunt mode,
bandgap voltage reference with a fixed reverse break-
down voltage of 1.225V. Ideal for space-critical appli-
cations, the LM4041 is offered in the subminiature 3-pin
♦ Ultra-Small 3-Pin SC70 Package
♦ 0.1% (max) Initial Accuracy
♦ 100ppm/°C (max) Temperature Coefficient
Guaranteed over -40°C to +125°C Temperature
Range
✕
SC70 surface-mount package (1.8mm 1.8mm), 50%
smaller than comparable devices in SOT23 surface-
mount packages (SOT23 versions are also available).
♦ Wide Operating Current Range: 60µA to 12mA
Laser-trimmed resistors ensure precise initial accuracy.
With a 100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, the device
is offered in four grades of initial accuracy ranging from
0.1% to 1%. The LM4041 has a 60µA to 12mA shunt
current capability with low dynamic impedance, ensur-
ing stable reverse-breakdown voltage accuracy over a
wide range of operating temperatures and currents.
♦ Low 20µV
Output Noise (10Hz to 10kHz)
RMS
♦ 1.225V Fixed Reverse Breakdown Voltage
♦ No Output Capacitors Required
♦ Tolerates Capacitive Loads
Ordering Information
The LM4041 does not require an external stabilizing
capacitor while ensuring stability with any capacitive
load.
