TL432LI-Q1

The TL431LI-Q1 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. The device has a typical output impedance of 0.3 Ω. Its active output circuitry provides a very sharp turn-on characteristic, making it an excellent replacement 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-Q1 with optimized I_ref and I_Idev performance. The lower I_ref and I_Idev values of the TL431LI-Q1 enable designers to achieve higher system accuracy and lower leakage current. The TL432LI-Q1 has exactly the same functionality and electrical specifications as the TL431LI-Q1, but has a different pinout for the DBZ package.

The TL431LI-Q1 is offered in two grades, with initial tolerances (at 25°C) of 0.5% and 1%, for the B and A grade, respectively. The TL431LI-Q1 is also available in two temperature grades: grade 1 (denoted by a ’Q’ in the part number), and grade 0 (denoted by a ’E’ in the part number), which represent maximum ambient operating temperatures of 125°C and 150°C respectively. The TL43xLI-Q1 is characterized for operation from –40°C to 125°C for grade 1, and –40°C to 150°C for grade 0, and its low output drift versus temperature ensures good stability over the entire temperature range.
