CAT102
Precision, Adjustable Shunt Regulator
(600mV Reference)
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The CAT102 is a low-voltage reference and amplifier.
Designed for the control loop of low-voltage power
supplies, the reference voltage has been designed for
600mV. Over a junction temperature from -40°C to
105°C, the reference voltage is within 8mV of the
nominal 600mV. In addition, the error amplifier output
and the supply voltage pin (IN) are on separate pins.
600mv low voltage reference
35ppm low temperature coefficient
±6mV initial accuracy
High PSRR: 45dB at 300kHz
Better line regulation: 1mV (VIN from 2.2V to 18V)
Low supply current: 90µA
Power supply rejection is a high 45dB at 300kHz. The
output, OUT, can sink 20mA at a maximum saturation
voltage of 250mV.
Open drain output
Directly drives optocouplers
Industrial temperature range of -40ºC to 85ºC
RoHS-compliant 5-lead TSOT23 package
When combined with an optocoupler, the CAT102 can
be used as an error amplifier that controls the
feedback loop in isolated low-output voltage switching
power supplies.
