Where can I find a replacement for LM4040BIZ-10.0 voltage regulator?

AI Thread Summary
The LM4040BIZ-10.0 voltage regulator is currently unavailable, prompting the search for a suitable replacement. Users are advised to visit Digikey and filter their search for specific parameters such as 0.2% tolerance, TO92 package, and a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C to find the exact part, which may only be available in bulk. If bulk purchasing is not feasible, alternatives in SOT23 packages can be considered, with proper connections as outlined in the datasheet. The discussion highlights the importance of matching specifications while being open to modified connections. Finding a replacement for the LM4040BIZ-10.0 requires careful consideration of part specifications and potential alternatives.

I am trying to replace a voltage regulator with an, as of yet, unavailable LM4040BIZ-10.0. I would like to keep the same pin design, but can work with a modified connection if I must. I am not a hobbyist, just a guy that likes to keep things working. I went through a few datasheets and must admit that it is way above my skills to match this part.

After looking through the conversations here, I think this is the place to be. Thank you for any help.

not sure what you are asking. Try again
 
Is there another IC that has the same parameters as the LM4040 10v and preferably the same pin design? Again, please excuse my ignorance.

I am armed with a schematic, multimeter and a soldering iron...usually it's enough for me, but I can't find the part to replace what I have found to be defective.
 
Go to www.digikey.com

1 - Search for LM4040
2 - Use their part filtering to select 0.2% (that is what the B denotes), TO92 package (that is what the Z denotes), -40C ~ 85C operating temperature (that is what the I denotes), and 10V.

You will see that they have your exact part but only available in bulk...call them as see if they will sell you a single part.

If that doesn't work out, remove the TO92 filter from the search and you will see many SOT23 package choices. You can use the SOT23, just hook up the (+) and (-) appropriately (look at diagram in datasheet).
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
