Active shunt reference with tight tolerance
Output voltage is adjustable from 1.24 V up to 6 V, set by two external resistors, with a 15 mA cathode current rating that drives the feedback node of a switching regulator or an error amplifier.
Parametric fit for the BOM line
The ±0.5% tolerance reduces worst-case error in the regulation setpoint. Minimum cathode current is 100 µA, which sets the bias resistor value for the shunt; the part operates down to that current without dropping out of regulation.
