LM4050BIM3X-2.0

Voltage Reference Overview

The LM4050BIM3X-2.0 is a micropower shunt voltage reference manufactured by Texas Instruments, housed in an SOT-23 package. It provides a fixed output voltage of 2.0V with an initial accuracy of 0.2%. The device features a temperature coefficient of 30 ppm/°C and supports a maximum shunt current of 15 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Voltage Reference Feature Summary

• Provides stable precision voltage reference via two-terminal shunt operation
• Ensures high accuracy through laser-trimmed internal resistors
• Maintains stability across wide operating currents without external capacitors

Voltage Reference Applications

• Portable battery-powered instrumentation
• Data acquisition systems requiring precise references
• Handheld meters and test equipment

Voltage Reference Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'X' indicates reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status as some listings indicate non-compliance. Ensure the manufacturer is identified as Texas Instruments or its acquired entities like National Semiconductor for accurate documentation matching.

Voltage Reference Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring compact surface-mount solutions with tight tolerance requirements. Compare against the LM4040 series if lower temperature coefficients are needed, or the LM4050A grade for higher initial accuracy specifications.

Voltage Reference Part Context

This part belongs to the LM4050-N family of precision micropower shunt voltage references. It shares architectural similarities with other LM40xx devices but offers specific performance characteristics tailored for space-constrained designs requiring reliable voltage regulation.
