The AP431 and AP431A are 3-terminal adjustable precision
shunt regulators with guaranteed temperature stability over
the applicable extended commercial temperature range.
The output voltage may be set at any level greater than
2.495V (V_REF) up to 36V merely by selecting two external
resistors that act as a voltage divider network. These
devices have a typical output impedance of 0.2Ω. Active
output circuitry provides very sharp turn-on characteristics,
making these devices excellent improved replacements for
Zener diodes in many applications.
The precise (+/-) 1% Reference voltage tolerance of the
AP431/AP431A make it possible in many applications to
avoid the use of a variable resistor, consequently saving
cost and eliminating drift and reliability problems associated
with it.
