LT1431
Programmable Reference
Features Description n n n n n The LT®1431 is an adjustable shunt voltage regulator
with 100mA sink capability, 0.4% initial reference voltage
tolerance and 0.3% typical temperature stability. On-chip
divider resistors allow the LT1431 to be configured as a
5V shunt regulator, with 1% initial voltage tolerance and
requiring no additional external components. By adding
two external resistors, the output voltage may be set to
any value between 2.5V and 36V. The nominal internal
current limit of 100mA may be decreased by including
one external resistor. n Guaranteed 0.4% Initial Voltage Tolerance
