LM385MX

Texas Instruments · Voltage Reference · SOIC-8

LM385MX from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 FEEDBACK input Feedback/adjust input to the internal band-gap amplifier. Connect to the tap of an external resistive divider from V+ to V- to program the reference voltage from 1.24 V up to 5.30 V. Feedback current is typically ~13 nA (LM185) / 16 nA (LM385).
2 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient net; not electrically connected to the die.
3 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient net; not electrically connected to the die.
4 V- power_in Negative supply / anode of the shunt reference. Return current path; typically connected to circuit ground in shunt-regulator configurations. Absolute maximum reverse current 30 mA.
5 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient net; not electrically connected to the die.
6 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient net; not electrically connected to the die.
7 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient net; not electrically connected to the die.
8 V+ power_in Positive supply / cathode of the shunt reference. Fed through an external series resistor from the raw supply to set the reference bias current (10 µA to 20 mA operating range). Operates over a 1.24 V to 5.3 V output range set by FEEDBACK.
