Adjustable shunt reference for precision regulation loops
It sets output voltage anywhere between 2.5 V and 36 V using two external resistors, with an initial tolerance of ±0.4% and a temperature coefficient of 100 ppm/°C. The shunt topology means the device sinks current through the cathode pin — it regulates by shunting current away from the load, not by sourcing it.
±0.4% tolerance — what it buys the BOM
The TL1431IZ initial tolerance is ±0.4%.
