TL431BCPK

Texas Instruments · Voltage Reference · SOT-89-3

TL431BCPK 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 Reference/control input relative to ANODE; the internal amplifier forces this node to the internal threshold (Vref = 2483 mV min / 2495 mV typ / 2507 mV max for the BC grade at IKA=10 mA) and requires a reference input current of typically 2 µA (max 4 µA) to bias the internal NPN, so it must not be left floating.
2 ANODE passive Common/reference terminal of the device, normally connected to ground, serving as the return path for cathode current.
3 CATHODE passive Shunt current/voltage node that sinks a regulated cathode current over the recommended range of 1 mA to 100 mA (absolute maximum -100 mA to 150 mA) at a cathode voltage from Vref up to 36 V (absolute maximum 37 V).
