NTE999M
Integrared Circuit
Programmable Precision Reference
Description:
The NTE999M integrated circuit is a three–terminal programmable shunt regulator. This monolithic
IC voltage reference operates as a low temperature coefficient zener which is programmable from
Vref to 36 volts with two external resistors. This device exhibits a wide operating current range of 1.0
to 100mA with a typical dynamic impedance of 0.22Ω. The characteristics of this reference make it
an excellent replacement for zener diodes in many applications such as digital voltmeters, power sup-
plies, and op amp circuitry. The 2.5 volt reference makes it convenient to obtain a stable reference
from 5.0 volt logic supplies, and since the NTE999M operates as a shunt regulator, it can be used as
either a positive or negative voltage reference.
