PRODUCTION DATA
When the cathode/output voltage or current of TLVH431 is not being fed back to the reference/input pin in any form, this device is operating in open loop. With proper cathode current (Ika) applied to this device, TLVH431 has the characteristics shown in Figure 5-4. With such high gain in this configuration, the TLVH431 device is typically used as a comparator. With the reference integrated makes TLVH431 the preferred choice when users are trying to monitor a certain level of a single signal.
