Product details
Overview
TL432BIDBZT from Texas Instruments is a precision programmable shunt voltage reference in SOT-23-3 package, featuring 0.5% initial reference voltage tolerance at 25°C, adjustable output from 2.495 V to 36 V, and operation across −40°C to 125°C. It delivers 0.2 Ω typical dynamic impedance, 1–100 mA sink-current capability, and low 6 mV max temperature drift (Q-grade), making it ideal for high-stability feedback loops in isolated DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the TL432BIDBZT datasheet, TL432BIDBZT pinout, TL432BIDBZT application, or TL432BIDBZT equivalent, key selection criteria include its Q-grade automotive temperature range, SOT-23-3 pin-compatible alternative to TL431BQ variants, sharp turn-on characteristic for Zener replacement, and verified stability with ≥0.1 µF load capacitance in flyback feedback networks.
Technical Context
The TL432BIDBZT implements a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator architecture with an internal 2.495 V reference comparator driving an NPN output stage. Its REF pin senses voltage relative to ANODE, enabling precise external resistor-divider programming of cathode-to-anode voltage (VKA) between Vref and 36 V.
Unlike TL431, the TL432 family uses inverted pinout in DBZ (SOT-23-3): Pin 1 = CATHODE, Pin 2 = REF, Pin 3 = ANODE - confirmed per TI SLVS543S Figure 5-1. This inversion requires PCB layout revision when substituting TL431DBZ, but preserves identical electrical specs including 0.2 Ω dynamic impedance and 14 mV max Vref deviation over −40°C to 125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 2.495 V ±12 mV at 25°C (0.5% B-grade tolerance); sets minimum programmable VKA and defines feedback threshold accuracy. |
| Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C (Q-grade); enables use in under-hood automotive power supplies and industrial motor drives without derating. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.2 Ω typical (≤0.5 Ω max); ensures minimal output voltage shift under load transients in closed-loop regulation. |
| Sink Current Range | 1 mA to 100 mA; supports direct drive of optocoupler LEDs in isolated SMPS feedback paths without external amplification. |
| VKA Max | 36 V absolute max; allows direct interface with 24 V and 32 V bus systems in servo drives and AC inverters. |
| Vref Drift | ≤14 mV over full temperature range; guarantees ≤0.056%/°C average TC for stable reference in wide-temperature applications. |
| Ref Input Current | 2–4 µA typical; enables high-impedance resistor dividers (e.g., 1 MΩ/2.2 MΩ) minimizing quiescent current in battery-backed systems. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-3 (DBZ) package: 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm body, gull-wing leads, moisture sensitivity level 1, rated for reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (CATHODE) | Shunt current output node | Connects to switched-node side of optocoupler LED or error amplifier output; sinks regulated current to maintain VKA. |
| Pin 2 (REF) | Reference voltage sense input | High-impedance input (2–4 µA) tied to resistor divider midpoint; triggers regulation when voltage exceeds 2.495 V relative to ANODE. |
| Pin 3 (ANODE) | Common reference return | Must be connected to system ground or power rail common point; serves as voltage reference for REF and defines VKA = VCATHODE − VANODE. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Sharp turn-on characteristic | Enables clean switching in Zener-replacement configurations, reducing overshoot in transient response of SMPS feedback loops. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar shunt reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431BQDBZR | Same 0.5% tolerance and −40°C to +125°C rating, but TL431 pinout (Pin 1 = REF, Pin 2 = ANODE, Pin 3 = CATHODE). | Requires PCB redesign due to inverted pinout; otherwise identical electrical behavior and stability profile. | Select only if legacy TL431 layout reuse is prioritized over component count reduction. |
| MAX6007AEUR+T | Fixed 2.5 V output (not adjustable), 0.2% initial accuracy, 7 ppm/°C TC, SOT-23-3 package. | Lacks programmability; suited only for fixed-voltage references where 2.5 V suffices and ultra-low drift is critical. | Choose when absolute TC performance outweighs adjustability needs, e.g., precision ADC reference buffers. |
Compared with TL431BQDBZR, TL432BIDBZT saves board space by eliminating external compensation components needed for TL431 stability at high currents; versus MAX6007AEUR+T, it trades 0.2% accuracy for full 2.495–36 V programmability essential in multi-output power systems.

FAQ
What is the exact pinout configuration of TL432BIDBZT in the SOT-23-3 package?
The TL432BIDBZT uses Pin 1 = CATHODE, Pin 2 = REF, Pin 3 = ANODE - an inverted arrangement versus TL431. This is explicitly defined in TI SLVS543S Figure 5-1 for TL432 DBZ packages and must be accounted for during PCB layout to avoid functional failure. The ANODE pin serves as the reference ground for the REF input.
How does TL432BIDBZT differ electrically from TL431BQDBZR?
TL432BIDBZT and TL431BQDBZR share identical electrical specifications: 0.5% reference tolerance, −40°C to +125°C operation, 0.2 Ω dynamic impedance, and 1–100 mA sink current. The sole difference is pinout inversion - TL432 swaps REF and ANODE positions - requiring no electrical redesign but mandating layout revision.
Can TL432BIDBZT replace a Zener diode in high-precision applications?
Yes, TL432BIDBZT is explicitly designed as a superior Zener replacement. Its 0.5% initial tolerance, 14 mV max temperature drift, and sharp turn-on characteristic provide significantly better voltage stability and transient response than discrete Zeners, especially in feedback networks of switching regulators where accuracy directly impacts output regulation.
What is the minimum cathode current required for regulation in TL432BIDBZT?
The TL432BIDBZT requires a minimum cathode current (Imin) of 0.4 mA to maintain regulation, as specified in Section 6.12 of TI SLVS543S. This value is consistent across B-grade Q-temp devices and ensures reliable startup and line regulation even at light loads in low-power auxiliary supplies.
Is TL432BIDBZT suitable for use in isolated flyback converter feedback circuits?
Yes, TL432BIDBZT is widely deployed in optocoupler-based feedback loops of isolated flyback converters. Its 100 mA sink current directly drives common optocouplers like PC817, and its stability with ≥0.1 µF output capacitance simplifies compensation. The SOT-23-3 package allows compact placement on the secondary side adjacent to the optocoupler LED.
