ZTL431, ZTL432
Cost effective adjustable precision shunt regulator
Description
The ZTL431 and ZTL432 are three terminal
adjustable shunt regulators offering excellent
temperature stability and output current
handling capability up to 100mA. The output
voltage may be set to any chosen voltage
between 2.5 and 20 volts by selection of two
external divider resistors.
The devices can be used as a replacement for
zener diodes in many applications requiring an
improvement in zener performance.
Features
Temperature range ................ -40 to 125°C
Reference voltage tolerance at 25°C
0.5% ..................................... B grade
1% ......................................... A grade
Low output noise
0.2 typical output impedance
Sink current capability ...... 1mA to 100mA
Adjustable output voltage...... VREF to 20V
Pin connections
The ZTL432 has the same electrical specifications
as the ZTL431 but has a different pin out in
SOT23 (F-suffix) and SOT23F (FF-suffix).
Both variants are available in 2 grades with
initial tolerances of 1% and 0.5% for the A and
B grades respectively.
These are functionally equivalent to the TL431/
TL432 except for maximum operation voltage,
and have an ambient temperature range of -40
to 125°C as standard.

Notes
Deviation of reference input voltage, Vdev, is
defined as the maximum variation of the
reference input voltage over the full
temperature range.
The average temperature coefficient of the
reference input voltage, Vref is defined as:
The dynamic output impedance, Rz, is
defined as:
When the device is programmed with two
external resistors, R1 and R2, (fig 2), the
dynamic output impedance of the overall
circuit, R'z, is defined as:
Stability boundary
The ZTL431 and ZTL432 are stable with a
range of capacitive loads. A zone of instability
exists as demonstrated in the typical
characteristic graph on page 5. The graph
shows typical conditions. To ensure reliable
stability a capacitor of 4.7nF or greater is
recommended between anode and cathode.
