DESCRIPTION
The TL431 is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator
with specified thermal stability over applicable
temperature VREF (Approx. 2.5V) and 40V with two
external resistors. This device has a typical dynamic
output impedance of 0.2. Active output circuitry provides
a very sharp turn-on characteristic, making this device
excellent replacement for zener diodes in many
applications. The TL431 is characterized for operation
from -40 to +125.

The deviation parameters ΔVREF/ΔT and ΔIREF/ΔT are defined as the differences between the maximum and
minimum values obtained over the recommended temperature range. The average full-range temperature
coefficient of the reference voltage, αVREF, is defined as :

Where :
ΔTA is the recommended operating free-air temperature range of the device.
αVREF can be positive or negative, depending on whether minimum VREF or maximum VREF, respectively, occurs at
the lower temperature.
Example : Maximum VREF=2496mV at 30, maximum VREF=2492mV at 0, VREF=2495mV at 25,
ΔTA=70 for TL431C.
