AS431
ADJUSTABLE PRECISION SHUNT REGULATORS
Description
Pin Assignments
The AS431 is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator with
guaranteed thermal stability over a full operation range. It features
sharp turn-on characteristics, low temperature coefficient and low
output impedance, which make it ideal substitute for Zener diode in
applications such as switching power supply, charger and other
adjustable regulators.
