SLVS543S August 2004 – May 2024 TL431 , TL432
PRODUCTION DATA
This standard device has proven ubiquity and versatility across a wide range of applications, ranging from power to signal path. This is due to its key components containing an accurate voltage reference & opamp, which are very fundamental analog building blocks. TL43xx is used in conjunction with its key components to behave as a single voltage reference, error amplifier, voltage clamp or comparator with integrated reference.
TL43xx can be operated and adjusted to cathode voltages from 2.5V to 36V, making this part optimum for a wide range of end equipments in industrial, auto, telecom & computing. In order for this device to behave as a shunt regulator or error amplifier, >1mA (Imin(max)) must be supplied in to the cathode pin. Under this condition, feedback can be applied from the Cathode and Ref pins to create a replica of the internal reference voltage.
Various reference voltage options can be purchased with initial tolerances (at 25°C) of 0.5%, 1%, and 2%. These reference options are denoted by B (0.5%), A (1.0%) and blank (2.0%) after the TL431 or TL432. TL431 & TL432 are both functionaly, but have separate pinout options.
The TL43xxC devices are characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C, the TL43xxI devices are characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C, and the TL43xxQ devices are characterized for operation from –40°C to 125°C.
