Product details

Shunt reference for the BOM — what the ratings mean

The LM431ACM3/NOPB is a three-terminal adjustable shunt voltage reference from Texas Instruments. It sets a stable voltage between 2.495 V (min) and 37 V (max) using two external resistors. Output current is rated to 100 mA, and the minimum cathode current for regulation is 1 mA — the load and bias budget for the shunt leg.

Lifecycle and compliance — no LTB risk

Texas Instruments lists the LM431ACM3/NOPB as Active. It is ROHS3 compliant. For a BOM line that needs a commercial-temperature adjustable shunt reference in SOT-23-3, this part is current-production and can be specified into new designs without near-term obsolescence concern.

Frequently asked questions

Can LM431ACM3/NOPB replace TL431?

Yes — the LM431ACM3/NOPB is functionally equivalent to the industry-standard TL431 adjustable shunt reference. It shares the same three-terminal topology, 2.495 V reference, and adjustable output to 37 V. The ±2.2% tolerance and 50 ppm/°C drift are within the typical TL431 datasheet range. Verify the SOT-23-3 pinout matches your board layout before committing the BOM.
