TL432LI

The TL431LI device is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator, with specified thermal stability over applicable automotive, commercial, and military temperature ranges. The output voltage can be set to any value between V_ref (approximately 2.495 V) and 36 V, with two external resistors. These devices have a typical output impedance of 0.3 Ω. Active output circuitry provides a very sharp turn-on characteristic, making these devices excellent replacements for Zener diodes in many applications, such as onboard regulation, adjustable power supplies, and switching power supplies. This device is a pin-to-pin alternative to the industry standard TL431, with optimized I_ref and I_Idev performance. The lower I_ref and I_Idev values enable designers to achieve higher system accuracy and lower leakage current. The TL432LI device has exactly the same functionality and electrical specifications as the TL431LI device, but has a different pinout for the DBZ package.

The TL431LI device is offered in two grades, with initial tolerances (at 25°C) of 0.5% and 1%, for the B and A grade, respectively. In addition, low output drift versus temperature ensures good stability over the entire temperature range.

The TL43xLIxQ devices are characterized for operation from –40°C to 125°C.
