ADJUSTABLE PRECISION SHUNT REGULATORS
Description
The AZ431-A is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator with
guaranteed thermal stability over a full operation range. It features
sharp turn-on characteristics, low temperature coefficient and low
output impedance, which make it ideal substitute for Zener diode in
applications such as switching power supply, charger and other
adjustable regulators.
The output voltage of AZ431-A can be set to any value between V REF
(2.5V) and the corresponding maximum cathode voltage (36V).
The AZ431-A precision reference is offered in two voltage tolerance:
0.4% and 0.8%.
This IC is available in 4 packages: TO92 (bulk or ammo packing),
SOT23, SOT25 and SOT89.
