Advanced Analog Circuits AZ431-A Adjustable Precision Shunt Regulator Product Brief

The AZ431-A series ICs are three-terminal adjustable shunt regulators with guaranteed thermal stability over a full operation range. These ICs feature sharp turn-on characteristics, low temperature coefficient and low output impedance, which make them ideal substitutes for Zener diodes in applications such as switching power supply, charger and other adjustable regulators. The AZ431-A series ICs are of 40V voltage type. Its output voltage can be set to any value between VREF(2.5V) and 36V. The AZ431-A precision reference is offered in two band-gap tolerance: 0.4% and 0.8%.

About this manual

The AZ431-A series ICs are three-terminal adjustable shunt regulators designed with guaranteed thermal stability over a full operation range. They feature sharp turn-on characteristics, low temperature coefficient, and low output impedance, making them ideal substitutes for Zener diodes in applications such as switching power supplies, chargers, and other adjustable regulators.

These precision references offer an output voltage settable between 2.5V and 36V with a maximum voltage rating of 40V. The series is available with two bandgap tolerance options: 0.4% and 0.8%. Key features include high stability under capacitive loads, low dynamic output resistance (0.2Ω typical), and a sink current capacity ranging from 1mA to 100mA.
