CM431
LOW VOLTAGE ADJUSTABLE SHUNT REGULATOR
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The CM431 is a three-terminal adjustable shunt voltage regulator
with specified thermal stability and pin-to-pin compatible with the
earlier 431 series. The output voltage can be adjusted to any
value between VREF and 36V by using two external resistors. The
CM431 offers low output impedance for improved load regulation
with a typical output impedance of 200mΩ. Because of the
active output circuitry, the CM431 can replace the zener diodes in
applications such as switching power supplies, OVP crowbar
circuits, references for A/D, D/A converters with improved turn-on
characteristics.
Initial voltage reference accuracy of 1.0%.
Sink current capability from 1mA to 100mA
Typical output dynamic impedance less than 200mΩ;
Adjustable output voltage from VREF to 36V
Available in SOT-23, SOT-89, TO-92, & SOP-8
Low output noise
Typical equivalent full range temperature coefficient of
30ppm/OC
