Product details
Overview
TLVH431NAMQDBZR from Nexperia is an A-grade (±1.0 %) adjustable precision shunt regulator in SOT23 package with mirrored pinning (Pin 1 = Cathode, Pin 2 = REF, Pin 3 = Anode), operating from −40 °C to +125 °C, delivering reference voltage of 1.240 V (typical) and sink current up to 70 mA - used in isolated SMPS feedback loops, precision current sinks, and on-board voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the TLVH431NAMQDBZR datasheet, TLVH431NAMQDBZR pinout, TLVH431NAMQDBZR application, or TLVH431NAMQDBZR equivalent, this page delivers verified thermal stability data, dynamic impedance (0.10 Ω typ), cathode-anode voltage range (1.24 V to 14 V), and mirrored-pin SOT23 layout critical for PCB layout validation and functional replacement.
Technical Context
The TLVH431NAMQDBZR implements a three-terminal shunt topology with internal bandgap reference and error amplifier, enabling programmable output voltage via two external resistors. Its sharp turn-on characteristic and low 0.10 Ω dynamic cathode-anode impedance support stable regulation under fast load transients.
It operates across −40 °C to +125 °C with ±1.0 % reference voltage tolerance at 25 °C and ≤2.2 mV drift over full temperature range. The device requires no external compensation for capacitive loads up to 1 nF when properly decoupled per Figure 20 test conditions.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 1.228 V to 1.252 V at 25 °C (A-grade ±1.0 % tolerance) |
| Cathode-Anode Voltage Range | 1.24 V to 14 V - sets programmable output via resistor divider |
| Sink Current Range | 0.08 mA to 70 mA - supports both light-load biasing and high-current shunting |
| Dynamic Impedance | 0.10 Ω typical - ensures minimal output voltage deviation under load variation |
| Reference Current | 0.19 µA to 0.30 µA - enables ultra-low-power resistor-divider design |
| Temp Range | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for extended industrial and under-hood applications |
| Output Noise | Low - specified by low ZKA and stable Vref drift (≤2.2 mV max ΔVref) |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 plastic surface-mounted package (3.0 × 1.4 × 1.1 mm); mirrored pinning configuration (Pin 1 = Cathode, Pin 2 = REF, Pin 3 = Anode) as defined in Table 3 and Figure 29.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Main current sink path - connects to regulated output node or SMPS optocoupler anode |
| 2 | Reference (REF) | High-impedance input sensing point - ties to resistor divider midpoint for voltage setting |
| 3 | Anode (A) | Return path to ground or low-side rail - must be low-inductance for stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable Output Voltage | 1.24 V to 14 V using two external resistors - eliminates need for multiple fixed-voltage regulators |
| A-Grade Reference Tolerance | ±1.0 % at 25 °C - reduces calibration overhead in precision feedback paths |
| Low Dynamic Impedance | 0.10 Ω typical - maintains regulation accuracy during rapid load steps in SMPS loops |
| Ultra-Low Reference Current | 0.19 µA typical - minimizes divider power loss and improves efficiency in battery-powered systems |
| Extended Temperature Operation | −40 °C to +125 °C - supports industrial control, automotive non-safety modules, and power converters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar adjustable shunt regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLVH431NAQDBZR | Normal pinning (Pin 1 = REF, Pin 2 = K, Pin 3 = A); same A-grade tolerance and temp range | Requires PCB layout revision - incompatible pinout for drop-in replacement | Select when existing board uses standard SOT23 shunt regulator orientation and space allows re-routing. |
| TL431ACDBVR | TI part; ±1.0 % tolerance, but only rated to +85 °C; higher 0.2 Ω typical ZKA | Limited to commercial-temp applications; less stable under wide-temp or high-transient loads | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-extended-temp designs where 0.2 Ω impedance is acceptable. |
Compared with TLVH431NAQDBZR, TLVH431NAMQDBZR enables direct integration into mirrored-pin layouts without redesign; versus TL431ACDBVR, it adds +125 °C operation and 0.10 Ω impedance for tighter regulation in demanding industrial power systems.

FAQ
What is the pin configuration of TLVH431NAMQDBZR?
TLVH431NAMQDBZR uses mirrored pinning in SOT23: Pin 1 is Cathode (K), Pin 2 is Reference (REF), and Pin 3 is Anode (A). This differs from standard TLVH431N variants (e.g., TLVH431NAQDBZR), where Pin 1 is REF. Layout verification against Figure 29 and Table 3 is essential to avoid misconnection.
How does the A-grade tolerance affect system calibration?
The ±1.0 % reference voltage tolerance at 25 °C reduces initial calibration burden in closed-loop systems like SMPS, allowing tighter output voltage specifications without trimming. Combined with ≤2.2 mV total Vref drift over −40 °C to +125 °C, it minimizes recalibration needs across operating life.
Can TLVH431NAMQDBZR drive capacitive loads directly?
Yes - stability is maintained with load capacitances up to 1 nF when mounted close to the device and using recommended PCB layout (e.g., low-inductance anode return). Figure 20 defines stable operating boundaries; larger capacitors require series resistance or additional phase compensation per application note AN11582.
What is the minimum cathode current required for regulation?
The minimum cathode current (IK(min)) is 55 µA typical at Vref, ensuring reliable turn-on even under ultra-low-power conditions. This enables use in always-on monitoring circuits with microamp-level bias networks while maintaining regulation integrity down to 0.08 mA total sink current.
