APPLICATIONS
The CM431L is a low voltage three terminal adjustable shunt
regulator with thermal stability guaranteed over temperature.
The output voltage can be adjusted to any value from 1.24V
(
VREF)to 20V with two external resistors. The CM431L has a
typical dynamic output impedance of 0.25
Ω. Active output
circuitry provides a very sharp turn on characteristic, making
the CM431L an excellent replacement for zener diodes.
The CM431L shunt regulator is available in four voltage
tolerances(0.5%, 0.7%, 1.0% and 2.0%)and four package
options (SOT-23-3, SOT-23-5, SOT-89, TO-92, and SOP-8).
Four voltage tolerances allow the designer the opportunity to
select the proper cost/tolerance for their application.
