This series reference operates with input voltages as low as
2V and up to 6V consuming 160 µA (Typ.) supply current. In
power down mode, device current drops to less than 2 µA.
The LM4125 comes in two grades (A and Standard) and
three voltage options for greater flexibility. The best grade
devices (A) have an initial accuracy of 0.2%, while the standard have an initial accuracy of 0.5%, both with a tempco of
50ppm/˚C guaranteed from −40˚C to +125˚C.
The very low dropout voltage, low supply current and powerdown capability of the LM4125 makes this product an ideal
choice for battery powered and portable applications.
The device performance is guaranteed over the industrial
temperature range (−40˚C to +85˚C), while certain specs are
guaranteed over the extended temperature range (−40˚C to
+125˚C). Please contact National for full specifications over
the extended temperature range. The LM4125 is available in
a standard 5-pin SOT-23 package.

Note 2: Without PCB copper enhancements. The maximum power dissipation must be de-rated at elevated temperatures and is limited by TJMAX (maximum
junction temperature), θJ-A (junction to ambient thermal resistance) and TA (ambient temperature). The maximum power dissipation at any temperature is: PDissMAX
= (TJMAX − TA)/θJ-A up to the value listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Note 3: The human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into each pin. The machine model is a 200 pF capacitor discharged
directly into each pin.
Note 4: Typical numbers are at 25˚C and represent the most likely parametric norm.
Note 5: Limits are 100% production tested at 25˚C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed through correlation using Statistical Quality Control
(SQC) methods. The limits are used to calculate National’s Averaging Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).
Note 6: Dropout voltage is the differential voltage between VOUT and VIN at which VOUT changes ≤ 1% from VOUT at VIN = 3.3V for 2.0V, 2.5V and 5V for 4.1V. A
parasitic diode exists between input and output pins; it will conduct if VOUT is pulled to a higher voltage than VIN.
Note 7: Thermal hysteresis is defined as the change in +25˚C output voltage before and after exposing the device to temperature extremes.
Note 8: Output noise voltage is proportional to VOUT. VN for other voltage option is calculated using (VN(1.8V)/1.8) * VOUT. VN (2.5V) = (36µVPP/1.8) * 2.5 = 46µVPP.
Note 9: Long term stability is change in VREF at 25˚C measured continuously during 1000 hrs.

Application Hints
The standard application circuit for the LM4125 is shown in
Figure 1. It is designed to be stable with ceramic output
capacitors in the range of 0.022µF to 0.1µF. Note that
0.022µF is the minimum required output capacitor. These
capacitors typically have an ESR of about 0.1 to 0.5Ω.
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 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.
20069832
FIGURE 1.
INPUT CAPACITOR
Noise on the power-supply input can effect the output noise,
but can be reduced by using an optional bypass capacitor
between the input pin and the ground.
An input capacitor is typically not required. However, a 0.1µF
ceramic can be used to help prevent line transients from
entering the LM4125. Larger input capacitors should be
tantalum or aluminium.
The typical thermal hysteresis specification is defined as the
change in +25˚C voltage measured after thermal cycling.
The device is thermal cycled to temperature -40˚C and then
measured at 25˚C. Next the device is thermal cycled to
temperature +125˚C and again measured at 25˚C. The resulting VOUT delta shift between the 25˚C measurements is
thermal hysteresis. Thermal hysteresis is common in preci-
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.

sion references and is induced by thermal-mechanical package stress. Changes in environmental storage temperature,
operating temperature and board mounting temperature are
all factors that can contribute to thermal hysteresis.
