ME431NAXG from MICRONE, in a SOT-23. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A | passive | Anode terminal of the shunt regulator (system ground / low side of the internal shunt element). Sinks the regulated cathode current back to the return rail. |
| 2 | K | passive | Cathode terminal of the shunt regulator (high side). Sinks 1 mA to 100 mA when the reference conducts; withstands up to 36 V (abs-max 40 V) with respect to the anode. |
| 3 | REF | input | Reference / control input to the internal error amplifier's non-inverting input. Regulates the cathode-anode voltage such that V(REF) = VREF (typ. 2.500 V, ±0.4% for the 'A' grade). Reference input current 0.7 µA typ (3 µA max); abs-max IREF = 10 mA. |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 342 faces against 69 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
