1FEATURES (LM4121-1.2) DESCRIPTION
2 Small SOT23-5 Package The LM4121 is a precision bandgap voltage
Low Voltage Operation reference available in a fixed 1.25V and adjustable
High Output Voltage Accuracy: 0.2% version with up to 5 mA current source and sink
capability.
Source and Sink Current Output: ±5 mA
Supply current: 160 μA Typ. This series reference operates with input voltages as
low as 1.8V and up to 12V consuming 160 µA (Typ.)
Low Temperature Coefficient: 50 ppm/°C supply current. In power down mode, device current
Enable Pin drops to less than 2 μA.
Output Voltages: 1.25V and Adjustable The LM4121 comes in two grades A and Standard.
Industrial Temperature Range: 40°C to +85°C The best grade devices (A) have an initial accuracy of
(For Extended Temperature Range, 40°C to 0.2%, while the standard have an initial accuracy of
125°C, Contact Texas Instruments) 0.5%, both with a tempco of 50ppm/°C ensured from
40°C to +125°C.
APPLICATIONS The very low operating voltage, low supply current
and power-down capability of the LM4121 makes this
Portable, Battery Powered Equipment product an ideal choice for battery powered and
Instrumentation and Process Control portable applications.
Automotive & Industrial The device performance is ensured over the industrial
Test Equipment temperature range (40°C to +85°C), while certain
Data Acquisition Systems specs are ensured over the extended temperature
range (40°C to +125°C). Please contact Texas
Precision Regulators Instruments for full specifications over the extended
Battery Chargers temperature range. The LM4121 is available in a
Base Stations standard 5-pin SOT-23 package.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Output (Pin 5) Reference Output.
Input (Pin 4) Positive Supply.
Ground (Pin 2) Negative Supply or Ground Connection
Enable (Pin 3) Pulled to input for normal operation. Forcing this pin to ground will turn-off the output.
REF (Pin 1) REF Pin (1.25V option only). This pin should be left unconnected for 1.25V option.
Adj (Pin 1) VOUT Adj Pin (Adjustable option only). See Application Hints section.
APPLICATION HINTS
The standard application circuit for the LM4121 is shown in Figure 34. The output voltage is set with the two
feedback resistors, according to the following formula:
VOUT = [Vref(1+ R1/R2] Ibias R1 (1)
Values for R1 and R2 should be chosen to be less than 1 M. Ibias typically flows out of the adjust pin. Values for
Vref and Ibias are found in the Electrical Characteristics - LM4121-1.250V and Electrical Characteristics - LM4121-
ADJ tables. For best accuracy, be sure to take into account the variation of VREF with input voltage, load and
output voltage.
The LM4121 is designed to be stable with ceramic output capacitors in the range of 0.022µF to 0.047µF. Note
that 0.022µF is the minimum required output capacitor. These capacitors typically have an ESR of about 0.1 to
0.5. Smaller ESR can be tolerated, however larger ESR can not. The output capacitor can be increased to
improve load transient response, up to about 1µF. However, values above 0.047µF must be tantalum. With
tantalum capacitors, in the 1µF range, a small capacitor between the output and the reference (Adj) pin is
required. This capacitor will typically be in the 50pF range. Care must be taken when using output capacitors of
1µF or larger. These application must be thoroughly tested over temperature, line and load. Also, when the
LM4121 is used as a controller, with external active components, each application must be carefully tested to
ensure a stable design. The adjust pin is sensitive to noise and capacitive loading. The trace to this pin must be
as short as possible and the feedback resistors should be close to this pin. Also, a single point ground to the
LM4121 will help ensure good accuracy at high load currents.
An input capacitor is typically not required. However, a 0.1µF ceramic can be used to help prevent line transients
from entering the LM4121. Larger input capacitors should be tantalum or aluminium.
The enable pin is an analog input with very little hysteresis. About 6µA into this pin is required to turn the part on,
and it must be taken close to GND to turn the part off (see Electrical Characteristics - LM4121-1.250V and
Electrical Characteristics - LM4121-ADJ tables for thresholds). There is a minimum slew rate on this pin of about
0.003V/µS to prevent glitches on the output. All of these conditions can easily be met with ordinary CMOS or
TTL logic. If the shutdown feature is not required, then this pin can safely be connected directly to the input
supply. Floating this pin is not recommended.

PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT CONSIDERATION
The mechanical stress due to PC board mounting can cause the output voltage to shift from its initial value.
References in SOT packages are generally less prone to assembly stress than devices in Small Outline (SOIC)
package.
To reduce the stress-related output voltage shifts, mount the reference on the low flex areas of the PC board
such as near to the edge or the corner of the PC board.
