TL431AQPK

Texas Instruments · Voltage References · SOT-89-3

TL431AQPK from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-89-3. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 REF input Threshold reference input relative to the common anode; it cannot be left floating (IREF ≥ 4µA needed) and is regulated to about 2.5V (Vref), with input current abs max of 10mA.
2 ANODE power_in Common pin, normally connected to ground.
3 CATHODE bidirectional Shunt current/voltage input, operated from Vref to 36V (37V abs max) with 1mA to 100mA continuous cathode current.
