7. Functional diagram
The TL431 family comprises a range of 3-terminal adjustable shunt regulators, with
specified thermal stability over applicable automotive and commercial temperature
ranges. The output voltage may be set to any value between V
ref
(approximately 2.5 V)
and 36 V with two external resistors (see
Figure 8).
These devices have a typical output
impedance of 0.2
Ω.
Active output circuitry provides a very sharp turn-on characteristic,
making these devices excellent replacements for Zener diodes in many applications like
on-board regulation, adjustable power supplies and switching power supplies.
