analog - dividing voltage of shunt Vref Lm4040


the whole thing i'm trying to do for about 3 mounth's is measuring IR-level with high accuracy, i tried many newbie circuits with huge noises, unstable results etc..
then i focused on ADS1110, an ADC chip which has an internal 2.048V vref so i can't use any value bigger that Vref for measurement. in other side, i'm using a voltage divider to generating voltage changes in different IR levels. not matter how much photodiode is sensentive and what is maximum and minimum resistance of it, the importance is just steady results for ever... so an steady power supply is the key, and i just found LM4040CIZ-2.5 available for myself (and don't know any other steady supply) which can provide 15mA maximum current.
but that is 2.5 not 2 in voltage! then i decide to use this formula to calculate R1 : enter image description here
and this one for R2 & R3 (considering an absolute maximum current drawing or passing trough Lm4040) : enter image description here
also i moved photodiode before the divide line in serie with R2 (instead R3) here is the circuit :

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab



i cant validate this method, im not crowling for a negative answer (80% i guess my circuit not works) i just trying to find a way to get an steady result from photodiode and ADS1110


TLDR : i read some things about Op Amps with a few understanding, im not sure if they are undependent voltage stability? here is the reference





Answer to comments, my imagine of steady is something near to a Big 1.5v Battery which i used many times to measuring IR level but unfortunately the whole of the big batteries goes empty then and new batteries are different from each other in millivolts,

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
