TL431CTA

HTC Korea TAEJIN Tech · Voltage References · TO-92-2.54mm

TL431CTA from HTC Korea TAEJIN Tech, in a TO-92-2.54mm. 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 Reference input Reference voltage input, which for TL431C is 2.483 V to 2.507 V at VKA = VREF and IK = 10 mA, with a reference input current of 1.8 uA typ. and 4.0 uA max.
2 Anode passive Common terminal of the shunt regulator that the cathode current returns to; the pin description table labels this pin Ground.
3 Cathode passive Cathode is the regulated shunt output, recommended to operate from VREF up to 40 V with a cathode current of 0.5 mA to 100 mA, and absolute maximum cathode voltage of 42 V.
