TLV431BCDBZTG4 Adjustable Precision Shunt Regulator

The TLV431BCDBZTG4 is a high-quality adjustable precision shunt regulator designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments. This device is part of their TLV431 series, known for their reliability, versatility, and precision in voltage regulation applications. The TLV431BCDBZTG4 is an ideal component for use in power supplies, voltage references, or wherever precise voltage regulation is required.

With a low output voltage range that can be set to any value between 1.24 V and 6 V with two external resistors, this shunt regulator offers great flexibility for designers. Its low dynamic output impedance and stable reverse breakdown voltage ensure consistent performance, making it suitable for high-accuracy applications.

The TLV431BCDBZTG4 features a guaranteed reference accuracy of ±1% at 25°C and ±2% over the entire industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. This high level of precision ensures that the device can maintain a stable output voltage despite variations in temperature, which is critical for sensitive electronic circuits.

Moreover, the device has a low operational current range of 1 mA to 100 mA, making it an efficient choice for battery-powered and low-power applications. The TLV431BCDBZTG4 also includes a built-in amplifier, which can sink current up to 20 mA, enough to drive low-power applications directly without the need for additional components.

Its small SOT-23 package makes the TLV431BCDBZTG4 suitable for space-constrained applications while providing excellent power handling capabilities. The device is designed with a typical temperature coefficient of only 50 ppm/°C, which contributes to its high stability over a wide range of environmental conditions.

With its combination of features, including low voltage operation, high accuracy, low quiescent current, and small form factor, the TLV431BCDBZTG4 from Texas Instruments is an excellent choice for designers looking for a reliable and precise voltage regulation solution.
