TL432

Shikues · Voltage Reference · SOT-23

TL432 from Shikues, 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 REF input Reference input. Internally compared to the 1.24V bandgap reference; connect to the tap of the R1/R2 divider from cathode to anode to program the regulated cathode voltage per VKA = VREF*(1 + R1/R2) + R1*IREF. Input current typ ~200 nA.
2 A passive Anode. Return terminal of the shunt reference; typically connected to circuit ground. Sinks the cathode current (0.1 mA to 100 mA) that flows from cathode through the device.
3 K passive Cathode. Regulated node; pulled up through an external resistor to the supply. Maximum cathode voltage 18 V, continuous cathode current up to 100 mA; dynamic impedance ~0.5 Ω.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
tl432.step 59 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
tl432-etched.step 918 KB You want the part with TL432 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 232 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.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Shikues datasheet (5 pp, sha256 47a874c155cc2e03, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
