PRODUCTION DATA
When the cathode or output voltage or current of TL1431 is not being fed back to the reference or input pin in any form, this device is operating in open loop. With proper cathode current (IKA) applied to this device, TL1431 has the characteristics shown in Figure 9-1. With such high gain in this configuration, TL1431 is typically used as a comparator. With the reference integrated makes TL1431 the preferred choice when users are trying to monitor a certain level of a single signal.
