The TL431CZ-AP is an adjustable shunt voltage reference from STMicroelectronics, part of the TL431 series. It operates within a cathode voltage range of 2.5 V to 36 V and supports a sink current capability from 1 mA to 100 mA. The device features a typical dynamic impedance of 0.22 Ω and is housed in a TO-92-3 (TO-226AA) through-hole package. Initial voltage precision is specified at ±2.21%, with an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.
Verify the specific suffix AP against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm package and tolerance specifications. Ensure the selected variant meets the required thermal and electrical constraints for the target application environment. Cross-reference ordering information with official STMicroelectronics documentation to avoid discrepancies.
Select this component when an adjustable shunt reference is required in a TO-92 package. Consider the ±2.21% initial precision and 0°C to +70°C operating range. Verify that the 1 mA minimum cathode current requirement aligns with the circuit design. Compare against other TL431 variants if tighter tolerance or extended temperature ranges are needed.
The TL431CZ-AP belongs to the widely used TL431 family of programmable shunt voltage references. These devices serve as low-cost alternatives to Zener diodes, offering superior accuracy and temperature stability. The TL431 series is commonly integrated into feedback loops for switching regulators and linear power supplies.
Compatible substitutes include the TL1431CLPR from Texas Instruments, which shares similar shunt reference functionality and pinout compatibility.
