2.495V Programmable Shunt Voltage Reference
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TS431 series 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 V
REF
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 2.5V reference makes it
convenient to obtain a stable reference from 5.0V logic
supplies, and since The TS431 series operates as a
shunt regulator, it can be used as either a positive or
negative stage reference.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION – STABILITY
When The TS431/431A/431B is used as a shunt regulator, there are two options for selection of C
L
, are recommended for
optional stability:
A) No load capacitance across the device, decouple at the load.
B)
Large capacitance across the device, optional decoupling at the load.
The reason for this is that TS431/431A/431B exhibits instability with capacitances in the range of 10nF to 1uF (approx.) at light
cathode current up to 3mA (typ). The device is less stable the lower the cathode voltage has been set for. Therefore while the
device will be perfectly stable operating at a cathode current of 10mA (approx.) with a 0.1uF capacitor across it, it will oscillate
transiently during start up as the cathode current passes through the instability region. Select a very low capacitance, or
alternatively a high capacitance (10uF) will avoid this issue altogether. Since the user will probably wish to have local
decoupling at the load anyway, the most cost effective method is to use no capacitance at all directly across the device. PCB
trace/via resistance and inductance prevent the local load decoupling from causing the oscillation during the transient start up
phase.
Note: if the TS431/431A/431B is located right at the load, so the load decoupling capacitor is directly across it, then this
capacitor will have to be ≤1nF or ≥10uF.
