DESCRIPTION
The SC431 is a three terminal adjustable shunt regula-
tor with thermal stability guaranteed over temperature.
The output voltage can be adjusted to any value from
2.5V (VREF) to 36V with two external resistors. The
SC431 has a typical dynamic output impedance of
0.25Ω. Active output circuitry provides a very sharp
turn on characteristic, making the SC431 an excellent
replacement for zener diodes.
The SC431 shunt regulator is available in three voltage
tolerances (0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0%) and three package
options (SOT-23-3, SO-8 and TO-92). The three volt-
age tolerances allow the designer the opportunity to
select the proper cost/tolerance for their application.
