1.24V COST EFFECTIVE SHUNT REGULATOR
Description
The TLV431 is a three terminal adjustable shunt regulator offering
excellent temperature stability and output current handling capability
up to 20mA. The output voltage may be set to any chosen voltage
between 1.24 and 18 volts by selection of two external divider
resistors.
The TLV431 can be us ed as a rep lac ement for zener diodes in m any
applicat i ons requiri ng an improvement in zener performanc e.
The TLV431 is available in 3 grades with initial tolerances of 1%,
0.5%, and 0.2% for the A, B and T grades respectively.
