Programmable shunt reference regulator provides an adjustable precision reference for linear and switching control circuits. The device uses a 2.5 V internal reference and supports programmable output voltages above the reference value with external resistors. Cathode current operation spans low milliampere bias currents up to high shunt currents for regulator and error-amplifier applications. The family is documented for multiple package and grade options, so exact package and temperature limits depend on the orderable suffix.
