Adjustable shunt reference, ±0.5% — obsolete but still specified
The LM4041CIM7X-ADJ is a precision adjustable shunt voltage reference from Texas Instruments, with a ±0.5% initial tolerance and an adjustable output from 1.233 V to 10 V. It is designed for low-power bias and reference applications that need a stable voltage without a dedicated supply pin — the shunt topology sinks current from the load side.
1.233 V to 10 V output with 65 µA cathode current
The minimum cathode current is 65 µA, which sets the lower bound for the series resistor in the shunt configuration — the resistor must deliver at least that current plus the load current over the full input voltage range. Maximum output current is 12 mA, limiting the load the reference can drive directly.
