±0.5% adjustable shunt reference in SOT-23-3
It provides a 2.495 V minimum reference with a ±0.5% tolerance band, settable to any value up to 36 V using two external resistors. This is the precision-grade 'B' variant of the TL432 family, where the tolerance spec drives the regulation accuracy in the feedback loop.
100 mA cathode current and 700 µA minimum
Rated for 100 mA continuous cathode current, the TL432BIDBZTG4 can sink enough current to drive optocoupler LEDs in isolated power supplies or bias the feedback node in a linear regulator. The 700 µA minimum cathode current sets the lower bound for the bias resistor — design the series resistor to keep the device above this knee across the input voltage range and load conditions.
SOT-23-3 footprint and tape-and-reel delivery
Supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, the SOT-23-3 package (also listed as TO-236-3 / SC-59) is a standard three-pin footprint shared across the TL431/TL432 family. The surface-mount body suits automated pick-and-place assembly and reflow soldering.
