What are the key features of LM4040A10IDCKRG4?

  • Precision 10 V shunt reference with ±0.1% initial accuracy class A for high-resolution ADC and DAC circuits
  • Two-terminal shunt configuration simplifies circuit design with a single resistor setting the bias current
  • Low output voltage tolerance of ±10 mV over the 9.99 V to 10.01 V range ensures consistent calibration references
  • Tiny SC-70-5 package (2 mm × 2.1 mm) minimises board area in handheld and portable measurement instruments

What is LM4040A10IDCKRG4 used for?

The LM4040A10IDCKRG4 serves as a precision voltage reference in high-resolution data acquisition systems, 16-bit or 24-bit ADC front-ends, and precision DAC calibration circuits that require a stable 10 V anchor point. Its shunt topology makes it straightforward to integrate alongside operational amplifiers in precision instrumentation and industrial measurement equipment. The compact SC-70-5 package is also useful in portable calibrators and handheld multi-meters where board space is at a premium.

Frequently Asked Questions

What accuracy class does LM4040A10IDCKRG4 offer and how does that affect 16-bit ADC calibration?

LM4040A10IDCKRG4 is the A-grade version with ±0.1% initial accuracy, equivalent to a ±10 mV tolerance on the 10 V output. For a 16-bit ADC with a 10 V full-scale range, this accuracy class ensures the reference error contributes less than 6 LSBs, which is acceptable for many industrial measurement applications.

How is LM4040A10IDCKRG4 biased in a shunt reference circuit and what resistor value is typically needed?

As a two-terminal shunt device, LM4040A10IDCKRG4 is biased by connecting a series resistor between the supply and the reference anode. With a 12 V supply and a recommended 1 mA bias current, the resistor is approximately 2 kΩ. The shunt circuit keeps the output at a stable 10 V as long as the bias current remains within the specified operating range.

In which precision measurement applications is a 10 V shunt reference preferred over a 2.5 V or 5 V reference?

A 10 V reference is preferred when the ADC or DAC uses a 10 V full-scale span, common in industrial 4–20 mA loop calibrators, bench multimeters, and programmable power supply feedback networks. Using a reference equal to the full-scale voltage eliminates the gain stage needed to scale lower voltage references, reducing noise and component count.

What package dimensions does LM4040A10IDCKRG4 use and how does it compare to SOT-23-5 for board layout?

LM4040A10IDCKRG4 uses the SC-70-5 package with a 2 mm × 2.1 mm body and 0.65 mm pin pitch, which is smaller than a standard SOT-23-5 package. This size advantage is significant in portable instruments and handheld calibrators where saving even a few square millimetres of PCB area matters.
