Product details
Overview
TS431BIYLT from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q100 qualified, adjustable shunt voltage reference IC in SOT23-5 package, delivering 0.5% initial voltage precision (1.24 V to 6 V), 100 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and stable operation down to 60 µA cathode current. It serves as a precision feedback element in automotive-grade 3.3 V switching power supplies, especially when driving optocouplers in isolated flyback regulators.
For engineers reviewing the TS431BIYLT datasheet, TS431BIYLT pinout, TS431BIYLT application, or TS431BIYLT equivalent, key selection criteria include cathode current range (60 µA–30 mA), low output impedance (0.2 Ω), capacitive load stability, AEC-Q100 qualification, and SOT23-5 thermal resistance (RthJA = 250 °C/W).
Technical Context
The TS431BIYLT implements a bandgap-based three-terminal shunt reference architecture with internal error amplifier and reference voltage node (VREF = 1.24 V). Its regulation relies on external resistor divider feedback between cathode and reference terminals, enabling programmable output voltage up to 6 V while maintaining 0.5% accuracy over –40 °C to +125 °C.
It operates with ultra-low minimum cathode current (60 µA), outperforming TL431 in low-power startup and standby conditions. Dynamic response is optimized above 500 µA cathode current, and its 0.2 Ω static impedance ensures minimal load-induced voltage deviation across 0.1–15 mA operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage Range | 1.24 V to 6 V - Programmable via two external resistors; enables flexible feedback design for 3.3 V, 5 V, or custom rail regulation. |
| Voltage Precision | ±0.5% at 25 °C - Guarantees tight output tolerance without trimming; reduces system calibration burden in automotive applications. |
| Cathode Current Range | 60 µA to 30 mA - Supports low-power standby modes and full-load regulation in isolated SMPS feedback loops. |
| Temperature Coefficient | 100 ppm/°C - Ensures ≤12.5 mV drift over –40 °C to +125 °C (ΔT = 165 °C), critical for automotive thermal robustness. |
| Output Impedance | 0.2 Ω typical - Minimizes voltage shift under dynamic load transients; maintains regulation during optocoupler LED current variations. |
| ESD Protection | HBM: 2 kV, MM: 200 V - Meets automotive board-level ESD requirements per ISO 10605 without external protection. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C - Fully specified for under-hood automotive environments; validated per AEC-Q100 Grade 1. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 plastic micropackage (ECOPACK® compliant), 5-pin surface-mount device with exposed pad not connected internally. Package dimensions: 2.80–3.00 mm × 1.50–1.75 mm × 0.90–1.45 mm height; RthJA = 250 °C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (K) | Output terminal; sinks current to ground via external load | Primary regulation node; connects to SMPS transformer secondary or optocoupler anode; handles up to 30 mA continuous current. |
| Anode (A) | Reference return path; tied to system ground | Provides common reference point for feedback loop; must be low-impedance ground connection to avoid regulation error. |
| Reference (R) | High-impedance input sensing VREF node | Connects to resistor divider midpoint; draws only 70–160 nA, minimizing divider current loss and power consumption. |
| No Connect (NC) | Unbonded internal pin | Must remain unconnected; no electrical function; improves manufacturability and test yield in SOT23-5 layout. |
| No Connect (NC) | Unbonded internal pin | Second NC pin; electrically isolated; allows 5-pin package standardization across TS431 variants without redesign. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar adjustable shunt reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL431ACDR | 2% initial tolerance, higher 100 µA min cathode current, no AEC-Q100 qualification | Not suitable for automotive production; requires external compensation for >1 nF capacitive loads | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive industrial designs where 2% tolerance is acceptable. |
| MAX6008AEUR+T | 0.2% precision, 50 µA min cathode current, but fixed 2.5 V output (non-adjustable) | Lacks programmability; cannot replace TS431BIYLT in variable-output or optocoupler-feedback topologies | Choose only when fixed 2.5 V reference suffices and ultra-low startup current is mandatory. |
Compared with TL431ACDR and MAX6008AEUR+T, the TS431BIYLT uniquely combines automotive qualification, 0.5% adjustability, and robust capacitive-load stability-making it the sole fit for AEC-Q100-compliant, programmable feedback in isolated SMPS.

FAQ
What is the maximum cathode-to-anode voltage the TS431BIYLT can withstand?
The TS431BIYLT has an absolute maximum cathode-to-anode voltage (VKA) rating of 10 V. Operation beyond this value risks permanent damage. In normal regulation, VKA equals the programmed output voltage (1.24 V to 6 V); the 10 V limit provides safe margin for transient overvoltage events in automotive systems.
Can the TS431BIYLT replace TL431 in existing designs without modification?
Pin-for-pin replacement is possible in SOT23-5 layouts, but design validation is required. The TS431BIYLT offers lower minimum cathode current (60 µA vs. 100 µA) and superior capacitive-load stability, potentially allowing removal of damping resistors. However, its tighter 0.5% tolerance may affect feedback loop gain margins and should be verified in final system testing.
Does the TS431BIYLT require external compensation for stability?
No external compensation is required. The TS431BIYLT is designed to remain stable with any capacitive load, including large bulk capacitors (>10 µF) commonly used in automotive power supplies. This eliminates the need for series resistors or RC networks typically required with TL431, simplifying layout and improving transient response.
How does the AEC-Q100 qualification impact the TS431BIYLT's use in non-automotive applications?
AEC-Q100 qualification confirms enhanced reliability, including extended temperature operation (–40 °C to +125 °C), rigorous stress testing, and improved parametric consistency. While not required outside automotive, these attributes directly benefit industrial, medical, and aerospace applications demanding long-term stability and field reliability-without increasing cost or complexity.
