10V shunt reference with ±0.2% initial accuracy
The LM4040B10IDBZTG4 is a fixed 10V shunt voltage reference from Texas Instruments, offering a tight ±0.2% initial tolerance and a temperature coefficient of 100ppm/°C.
Output current and noise — what limits the load
The shunt reference can sink up to 15 mA of output current, with a minimum cathode current of 125 µA required for regulation. The output noise is specified at 180 µVrms over a 10 Hz to 10 kHz bandwidth — adequate for 12-bit systems but worth budgeting for in 16-bit+ designs where the noise floor matters.
