7.4.2 Closed Loop

When the cathode/output voltage or current of TLV431 is being fed back to the reference/input pin in any form, this device is operating in closed loop. The majority of applications involving TLV431 use it in this manner to regulate a fixed voltage or current. The feedback enables this device to behave as an error amplifier, computing a portion of the output voltage and adjusting it to maintain the desired regulation. This is done by relating the output voltage back to the reference pin in a manner to make it equal to the internal reference voltage, which can be accomplished via resistive or direct feedback.
