Product details
Overview
ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C) automotive-grade programmable shunt regulator with 0.5% initial reference voltage tolerance at 25°C, 2.5 V nominal VREF, adjustable output up to 36 V, and 0.65 Ω typical dynamic impedance. It serves as a precision voltage reference, error amplifier, or comparator in feedback loops for DC/DC converters and on-board chargers.
For engineers reviewing the ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 datasheet, ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 pinout, ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 application, or ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include cathode current capability (0.08–15 mA), low IREF (≤0.4 µA), temperature drift (≤27 mV over –40°C to +125°C), and SOT-23 (DBZ) package compatibility with space-constrained automotive power systems.
Technical Context
The ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 integrates a precision 2.5 V bandgap reference and high-gain op-amp driving a Darlington sink output stage, enabling sharp turn-on and stable regulation without external compensation. Its open-loop gain supports comparator operation; closed-loop use with resistive feedback sets output voltage from VREF to 36 V.
It operates across –40°C to +125°C with ≤27 mV total VREF deviation, 0.65 Ω dynamic impedance at 1 mA cathode current, and requires ≥65 µA minimum cathode current (Imin) for regulation. Pinout differs from ATL431LI-Q1 variants-REF and CATHODE are swapped in the DBZ package.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VREF Tolerance (25°C) | ±0.5% (B grade): ensures ±12.5 mV absolute accuracy for tight-setpoint applications like OBC voltage monitoring. |
| Adjustable Output Range | 2.5 V to 36 V: enables single-device support for 12 V, 24 V, and 48 V automotive bus regulation via two external resistors. |
| IKA Range | 0.08 mA to 15 mA: supports low-power biasing (e.g., sensor references) and robust shunt sinking (e.g., LED current control). |
| Dynamic Impedance |ZKA| | 0.65 Ω typical at 1 mA: minimizes output voltage shift under load transients, critical for stable feedback in switching regulators. |
| Reference Input Current IREF | ≤0.4 µA max: reduces resistor-divider loading error and enables high-impedance sensing in battery-monitoring circuits. |
| Temperature Drift VI(dev) | ≤27 mV over –40°C to +125°C: guarantees <110 ppm/°C average TC, meeting stringent automotive thermal stability requirements. |
| Package | SOT-23 (DBZ): 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm footprint compatible with automated PCB assembly and high-density power modules. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (DBZ) package: 3-pin surface-mount, 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm body size, 0.95 mm height, gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1: CATHODE | Current Sink Output | Primary shunt path; connects to regulated node (e.g., DC/DC output); sinks up to 15 mA to maintain VREF at REF pin. |
| Pin 2: REF | Reference Input | Sense node for feedback; internal 2.5 V reference compared against voltage divider output; requires ≤0.4 µA input current. |
| Pin 3: ANODE | Common Return | Ground reference for all internal circuitry; must be connected to system ground or lowest potential point in shunt configuration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for –40°C to +125°C ambient operation, enabling use in engine bay and powertrain ECUs without derating. |
| 0.5% VREF initial accuracy | Reduces need for post-manufacturing calibration in safety-critical voltage monitoring (e.g., battery pack cell balancing). |
| Low 65 µA Imin (typ) | Enables ultra-low-quiescent-current designs in always-on automotive subsystems, extending standby battery life. |
| Pin-to-pin alternative to TL432LI-Q1 | Direct drop-in replacement with identical electrical specs and DBZ package, simplifying legacy design upgrades. |
| No external capacitor required | Internally compensated for stability with resistive feedback, eliminating BOM cost and layout area for output capacitance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL432LI-Q1 | Identical electrical specs and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 rating, but 1% VREF tolerance (A grade) instead of 0.5%. | Suitable where ±25 mV reference accuracy suffices (e.g., non-safety-critical HVAC controls). | Select TL432LI-Q1 only if cost sensitivity outweighs need for tighter voltage setpoint control. |
| ATL431LIBQDBZRQ1 | Same silicon, identical 0.5% VREF and thermal specs, but REF and CATHODE pins swapped in DBZ package. | Requires PCB layout revision due to pinout mismatch; not drop-in compatible. | Choose ATL431LIBQDBZRQ1 only when redesigning for legacy TL431 footprint compatibility. |
Compared with TL432LI-Q1, ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 delivers tighter initial accuracy for higher-precision regulation; compared with ATL431LIBQDBZRQ1, it offers identical performance with inverted pinout-enabling direct replacement in new layouts designed for its CATHODE-REF-ANODE sequence.

FAQ
What is the maximum cathode voltage rating for ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1?
The ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 has an absolute maximum cathode-to-anode voltage (VKA) of 37 V. Its recommended operating range is VREF to 36 V, making it suitable for 24 V and 36 V automotive systems. Exceeding 37 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings in the TI datasheet SNVSBB0A.
Does ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 is internally compensated and remains stable without an output capacitor between CATHODE and ANODE when used with resistive feedback. This eliminates capacitor-related BOM cost and layout complexity. However, if a capacitor is added, Figure 13 in the datasheet provides stability boundary guidance based on load capacitance and cathode current.
How does the pinout of ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 differ from ATL431LI-Q1 in the DBZ package?
In the SOT-23 (DBZ) package, ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 uses Pin 1 = CATHODE, Pin 2 = REF, Pin 3 = ANODE. ATL431LI-Q1 uses Pin 1 = REF, Pin 2 = CATHODE, Pin 3 = ANODE. This swap means they are not pin-compatible-PCB layout must be revised when substituting one for the other.
What is the minimum cathode current needed for regulation in ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1?
The ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 requires a minimum cathode current (Imin) of 65 µA (typical) and 80 µA (maximum) to maintain regulation. Below this, the device exits linear operation, causing loss of reference accuracy and increased output impedance-critical for low-power always-on automotive circuits.
Can ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 be used as a comparator, and what is its typical response time?
Yes, ATL432LIBQDBZRQ1 functions as a comparator with integrated 2.5 V reference in open-loop mode. Its response time is sub-microsecond-Figure 24 shows <1 µs rise/fall with 5 mA cathode current. Performance degrades below 1 mA IKA due to reduced gain, so ≥1 mA is recommended for fast switching applications.
