LM4050CEM3X-2.5

Texas Instruments · Voltage Reference · SOT-23-3

LM4050CEM3X-2.5 from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-23-3. 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 CATHODE passive Cathode terminal of the shunt reference. Connect through a series resistor (Rs) from the supply Vs; the regulated 2.5V reverse-breakdown voltage appears here (Vout). Sinks the shunt current (IQ + IL); operating cathode current range 60μA to 15mA.
2 ANODE passive Anode terminal, normally tied to system ground. Serves as the reference return for the 2.5V output measured at the CATHODE pin.
3 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to pin 2 (ANODE). In high-EMI environments (e.g. near transformers) or with significant high-frequency switching noise, TI recommends tying this pin to the anode.
