Adjustable shunt reference for precision bias and regulation
It sinks up to 100 mA and operates with a cathode current as low as 1 mA, making it a flexible building block for precision regulators, error amplifiers, and overvoltage protection circuits in commercial-temperature equipment (0°C to 70°C). The ±2.2% tolerance is the standard commercial grade — adequate for general-purpose supplies and bias rails where tighter precision is not required. The TO-92-3 through-hole package suits prototyping, legacy board repairs, and designs where surface-mount is not preferred.
The 36 V maximum output voltage covers common intermediate rails without needing a separate higher-voltage reference. The 100 mA sink capability is the total current the shunt can draw to maintain regulation.
It is RoHS3 compliant.
Commercial temperature grade — indoor use only
It is not qualified for automotive under-hood, outdoor telecom cabinets, or industrial motor drives where the ambient exceeds 70°C or dips below freezing.
