Product details

The shunt topology means it behaves like a two-terminal Zener — you bias it with a series resistor from a higher supply rail, and the reference regulates by shunting current through the cathode.

Package and rework — SOT-23-3 under the hot air

The LM4040C30QDBZT comes in a SOT-23-3 package, which is about as rework-friendly as a three-pin part gets. The body is small, so it heats up fast under a hot-air station — a 300°C nozzle at moderate airflow lifts it clean in about 8 seconds. No thermal pad underneath, so no risk of hidden solder bridges.

Frequently asked questions

What is the tolerance of LM4040C30QDBZT?

The tolerance is ±0.5%, which is a mid-grade precision level — tighter than the 1% versions but not the premium 0.1% grade. For a 3 V reference, that means the output is guaranteed within 15 mV of nominal at 25°C.
