TS431/431A/431B
Adjustable Precision Shunt Regulator
Sink Current Capability up to 100mA
General Description
The TS431/431A/431B integrated circuits are three-terminal programmable shunt regulator diodes. These monolithic IC
voltage references operate as a low temperature coefficient zener which is programmable from Vref to 36 volts with two
external resistors. These devices exhibit a wide operating current range of 1.0 to 100mA with a typical dynamic
impedance of 0.22Ω. The characteristics of these references make them excellent replacements for zener diodes in many
applications such as digital voltmeters, power supplies, and op amp circuitry. The 2.5volt reference makes it convenient to
obtain a stable reference from 5.0volt logic supplies, and since The TS431/431A/431B operates as a shunt regulator, it
can be used as either a positive or negative stage reference.
This series is offered in 3-pin TO-92, SOT-89, SOT-23 and SOP-8 package.
