LMV431AIMF

Texas Instruments · Voltage Reference · SOT-23-3

LMV431AIMF from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-23-3. 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 REF input Reference/adjust input; negative feedback from a two-resistor divider tied between cathode and this pin sets the gain of the internal 1.24-V band-gap reference (shorting REF to cathode gives a 1.24-V voltage-follower); typical reference input current is 0.15 µA to 0.5 µA.
2 CATHODE passive Regulated shunt terminal whose voltage is controlled by the REF pin feedback loop; recommended operating cathode current is 0.1 mA to 15 mA (minimum ~55 µA for regulation), cathode voltage up to 30 V, and absolute-maximum continuous cathode current is -30 mA to 30 mA.
3 ANODE power_in Low/return terminal of the shunt regulator (analogous to ground for the device), completing the current path set by the cathode current.
