GM432
1.24V ADJUSTABLE PRECISION SHUNT REGULATORS
Features
Description
Low-voltage operation, down to 1.24V
0.5%, 1% or 2% reference voltage tolerance
Adjustable output voltage, V = V to 16V
The GM432's are low-voltage three-terminal adjustable pre-
cision shunt regulators with specified thermal stability over
their full temperature range. Output voltage can be set to
O
ref
any value from V
(1.24V) to 16V by using two external
ref
Sink Current Capability 80µA to 100mA
resistors. Their active output circuitry provides a very
unique turn-on characteristic, making them excellent re-
placements for zener diodes in many applications such as
onboard regulation and adjustable power supplies. In a
wide range of home applications, these versatile darlings
are ideal voltage references for 3.0V to 3.3V switching
power suppies. With operational cathode current as low as
80µA, batteries keep on going. Whatever your application
is, the GM432's offer the optimum combination of perfor-
mance, reliability, and economy.
