LM336Z25
Programmable Shunt Regulator
General Description
The LM336Z25 integrated circuits are precision 2.5V shunt reg-
ulators. The monolithic IC voltage reference operates as a low
temperature coefficient 2.5V zener with 0.2W dynamic imped-
ance. The monolithic IC voltage reference operates as a low
temperature coefficient 2.5V zener with 0.2W dynamic imped-
ance. A third terminal on the LM336Z25 allows the reference
voltage and temperature coefficient to be trimmed easily.
LM336Z25 are useful as a precision 2.5V low voltage reference
for digital voltmeters, power supplies or OP-AMP circuitry. The
2.5V makes it convenient to obtain a stable reference from low
voltage supplies. Further, since the LM336Z25 operate as shunt
regulators, they can be used as either a positive or negative
voltage reference.

Note 1:
The Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be operated at these limits. The
parametric values defined in the Electrical Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum rating.
