SLVSFF4 December 2019 TLVH431B-EP
PRODUCTION DATA.
When using TLVH431B-EP as a Linear Regulator to supply a load, designers will typically use a bypass capacitor on the output/cathode pin. When doing this, be sure that the capacitance is within the stability criteria shown in Figure 20, Figure 21, and Figure 22.
To not exceed the maximum cathode current, be sure that the supply voltage is current limited. Also, limit the current being driven into the Ref pin, as not to exceed its absolute maximum rating.
For applications shunting high currents, pay attention to the cathode and anode trace lengths, adjusting the width of the traces to have the proper current density.
