TL431 PROGRAMABLE PRECISION REFERENCES

TL431 Programmable Precision References

The TL431 programmable precision references are three-terminal adjustable shunt regulators. They offer excellent temperature stability. Use them in power supplies and voltage monitoring. This 3-pack provides reliable performance for your projects.

These devices act as a precision voltage reference. You can set the output voltage with two external resistors. The TL431 operates from 2.5V to 36V. It delivers up to 100mA of sink current. This makes it versatile for many applications.

The TL431 programmable precision references work as a stable voltage clamp. They compare an internal reference to a feedback voltage. This feedback loop keeps the output very accurate. The device sinks current to maintain the set voltage. It responds quickly to changes in load or input. This makes it ideal for regulated power supplies. You can also use it as a low-cost voltage detector. The TL431 programmable precision references replace older zener diodes. They offer much better precision and stability. The wide voltage range covers many common needs. You can set any voltage between 2.5V and 36V. Two external resistors are all you need. This flexibility saves design time and cost.
