XRP431L
Precision Adjustable Shunt Regulator
Rev. 1.2.0
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRP431L is a three-terminal adjustable shunt voltage regulator providing a highly accurate bandgap reference.
The XRP431L acts as an open-loop error amplifier with a 1.24V temperature compensation reference. The XRP431L has thermal stability, wide operating current of 100mA and broad temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, making it suitable for a variety of applications which require a low-cost, high performance solution. The XRP431L tolerance of 0.5% is proven to be sufficient to overcome all other errors in the system to virtually eliminate the need for trimming in the power supply manufacturer's assembly line and contribute a significant cost savings.
