3 Description
The ATL431 and ATL432 are three-terminal
adjustable shunt regulators, with specified thermal
stability over applicable automotive, commercial, and
industrial temperature ranges. The output voltage can
be set to any value between Vref (approximately
2.5 V) and 36 V, with two external resistors. These
devices have a typical output impedance of 0.05 Ω.
Active output circuitry provides a very sharp turn-on
characteristic, making these devices excellent
replacements for Zener diodes in many applications,
such as onboard regulation, adjustable power
supplies, and switching power supplies.
The ATL43x has > 20x improvement cathode current
range over it's TL43x predecessor. It also is stable
with a wider range of load capacitance types and
values.
ATL431 and ATL432 are the exact same parts but
with different pinouts and order numbers. The
ATL43x is offered in two grades, with initial
tolerances (at 25°C) of 0.5%, 1%, for the B and A
grade, respectively. In addition, low output drift vs
temperature ensures consistent voltage regulation
over the entire temperature range.
The ATL43xxI devices are characterized for operation
from –40°C to +85°C, and the ATL43xxQ devices are
characterized for operation from –40°C to +125°C.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
ATL43x is a low power counterpart to TL431 and TLV431, having lower minimum cathode current (Ik(min) = 35
µA). Like TL431, ATL43x is used in conjunction with it's key components to behave as a single voltage
reference, error amplifier, voltage clamp or comparator with integrated reference.
ATL43x can be operated and adjusted to cathode voltages from 2.5 V to 36 V, making this part optimum for a
wide range of end equipments in industrial, auto, telecom and computing. In order for this device to behave as a
shunt regulator or error amplifier, > 35 µA (Imin(max)) must be supplied in to the cathode pin. Under this
condition, feedback can be applied from the Cathode and Ref pins to create a replica of the internal reference
voltage.
Various reference voltage options can be purchased with initial tolerances (at 25°C) of 0.5% and 1.0%. These
reference options are denoted by B (0.5%) and A (1.0%) after the ATL43x.
The ATL43xxI devices are characterized for operation from –40°C to +85°C, and the ATL43xxQ devices are
characterized for operation from –40°C to +125°C.
8.2 Functional Block Diagram
8.3 Feature Description
ATL43x consists of an internal reference and amplifier that outputs a sink current based on the difference
between the reference pin and the virtual internal pin. The sink current is produced by an internal Darlington pair.
When operated with enough voltage headroom (2.5 V) and cathode current (IKA), ATL43x forces the reference
pin to 2.5 V. However, the reference pin can not be left floating, as it needs Iref 0.1 µA (please see the
Functional Block Diagram). This is because the reference pin is driven into an NPN, which needs base current in
order operate properly.
When feedback is applied from the Cathode and Reference pins, ATL43x behaves as a Zener diode, regulating
to a constant voltage dependent on current being supplied into the cathode. This is due to the internal amplifier
and reference entering the proper operating regions. The same amount of current needed in the above feedback
situation must be applied to this device in open loop, servo or error amplifying implementations in order for it to
be in the proper linear region giving ATL43x enough gain.
Unlike many linear regulators, ATL43x is internally compensated to be stable without an output capacitor
between the cathode and anode; however, if it is desired to use an output capacitor Figure 14 through Figure 21
can be used as a guide to assist in choosing the correct capacitor to maintain stability.

8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Open Loop (Comparator)
When the cathode/output voltage or current of ATL43x is not being fed back to the reference/input pin in any
form, this device is operating in open loop. With such high gain in this configuration, ATL43x is typically used as
a comparator. Due to the integrated reference, the ATL43x allows users to monitor a certain level of a single
signal.
8.4.2 Closed Loop
When the cathode/output voltage or current of ATL43x is being fed back to the reference/input pin in any form,
this device is operating in closed loop. The majority of applications involving ATL43x use it in this manner to
regulate a fixed voltage or current. The feedback enables this device to behave as an error amplifier, computing
a portion of the output voltage and adjusting it to maintain the desired regulation. This is done by relating the
output voltage back to the reference pin in a manner to make it equal to the internal reference voltage, which can
be accomplished via resistive or direct feedback.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
Figure 29 shows the ATL43x used in a 24-V isolated flyback supply. The output of the regulator, plus the forward
voltage drop of the optocoupler LED (2.5 + 0.7 = 3.2 V), determine the minimum voltage that can be regulated in
an isolated supply configuration. Regulated voltage as low as 5.0 Vdc is possible in the topology shown in
Figure 29.
The 431 family of devices are prevalent in these applications, being designers go-to choice for secondary side
regulation. Due to this prevalence, this section will further go on to explain operation and design in both states of
ATL43x that this application will see, open loop (Comparator + Vref) and closed loop (Shunt Regulator).
ATL43x's key benefit in isolated supplies is the no load power savings gained by the > 20x decrease in IKmin from
TL431. More information about this and other benefits can be found in Designing with the "Advanced" TL431,
ATL431, SLVA685. Further information about system stability and using a ATL43x device for compensation can
be found in Compensation Design With TL431 for UCC28600, SLUA671.

9.2.1.1 Design Requirements
For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 1 as the input parameters.
Table 1. Design Parameters
DESIGN PARAMETER EXAMPLE VALUE
Input voltage range 0 V to 3.3 V
Input resistance 100 kΩ
Supply voltage 5 V
Cathode current (IK) 50 µA

9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
When using ATL43x as a comparator with reference, determine the following:
Input voltage range
Reference voltage accuracy
Output logic input high and low level thresholds
Current source resistance
9.2.1.2.1 Basic Operation
In the configuration shown in Figure 30 ATL43x will behave as a comparator, comparing the Vref pin voltage to
the internal virtual reference voltage. When provided a proper cathode current (Ik), ATL43x will have enough
open loop gain to provide a quick response. With the ATL43x's max operating current (Imin) being 35 µA and up
to 40 µA over temperature, operation below that could result in low gain, leading to a slow response.

9.2.1.2.2 Overdrive
Slow or inaccurate responses can also occur when the reference pin is not provided enough overdrive voltage.
This is the amount of voltage that is higher than the internal virtual reference. The internal virtual reference
voltage will be within the range of 2.5 V ±(0.5% or 1.0%) depending on which version is being used.
The more overdrive voltage provided, the faster the ATL43x will respond.
For applications where ATL43x is being used as a comparator, it is best to set the trip point to greater than the
positive expected error (that is, +1.0% for the A version). For fast response, setting the trip point to > 10% of the
internal Vref should suffice. Figure 31 shows the transition from VOH to VOL based on the input voltage and can be
used as a guide for selecting the overdrive voltage.
For minimal voltage drop or difference from Vin to the ref pin, it is recommended to use an input resistor < 1 MΩ
to provide Iref.
9.2.1.2.3 Output Voltage and Logic Input Level
In order for ATL43x to properly be used as a comparator, the logic output must be readable by the receiving logic
device. This is accomplished by knowing the input high and low level threshold voltage levels, typically denoted
by VIH and VIL.
As seen in Figure 31, ATL43x's output low level voltage in open-loop/comparator mode is ~2 V, which is
sufficient for some 5.0 V supplied logic. However, would not work for 3.3 V and 1.8 V supplied logic. In order to
accommodate this, a resistive divider can be tied to the output to attenuate the output voltage to a voltage legible
to the receiving low voltage logic device.
ATL43x's output high voltage is approximately Vsup due to ATL43x being open-collector. If Vsup is much higher
than the receiving logic's maximum input voltage tolerance, the output must be attenuated to accommodate the
outgoing logic's reliability.
When using a resistive divider on the output, be sure to make the sum of the resistive divider (R1 and R2 in
Figure 30) is much greater than Rsup in order to not interfere with ATL43x's ability to pull close to Vsup when
turning off.
9.2.1.2.3.1 Input Resistance
ATL43x requires an input resistance in this application in order to source the reference current (Iref) needed from
this device to be in the proper operating regions while turning on. The actual voltage seen at the ref pin will be:
Vref = Vin Iref × Rin (1)
Because Iref can be as high as 0.15 µA, TI recommends to use a resistance small enough that will mitigate the
error that Iref creates from Vin. Also, the input resistance must be set high enough as to not surpass the absolute
maximum of 10 mA.

For this design example, use the parameters listed in Table 2 as the input parameters.

Supply voltage 48 V
Cathode current (IK) 50 µA
Output voltage level 2.5 V to 36 V

9.2.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
When using ATL43x as a Shunt Regulator, determine the following:
Input voltage range
Temperature range
Total accuracy
Cathode current
Reference initial accuracy
Output capacitance
9.2.2.2.1 Programming Output/Cathode Voltage
In order to program the cathode voltage to a regulated voltage a resistive bridge must be shunted between the
cathode and anode pins with the mid point tied to the reference pin. This can be seen in Figure 32, with R1 and
R2 being the resistive bridge. The cathode/output voltage in the shunt regulator configuration can be
approximated by the equation shown in Figure 32. The cathode voltage can be more accurately determined by
taking in to account the cathode current:
VO= (1 + R1 / R2) × Vref Iref × R1 (2)
For this equation to be valid, ATL43x must be fully biased so that it has enough open loop gain to mitigate any
gain error. This can be done by meeting the Imin spec denoted in Electrical Characteristics, ATL431Ax, ATL432Ax
table.
9.2.2.2.2 Total Accuracy
When programming the output above unity gain (VKA = Vref), ATL43x is susceptible to other errors that may effect
the overall accuracy beyond Vref. These errors include:
R1 and R2 accuracies
VI(dev) - Change in reference voltage over temperature
ΔVref /ΔVKA - Change in reference voltage to the change in cathode voltage

|zKA| - Dynamic impedance, causing a change in cathode voltage with cathode current
Worst case cathode voltage can be determined taking all of the variables in to account. Setting the Shunt
Voltage on an Adjustable Shunt, SLVA445, assists designers in setting the shunt voltage to achieve optimum
accuracy for this device.
9.2.2.2.3 Stability
Though ATL43x is stable with no capacitive load, the device that receives the shunt regulator's output voltage
could present a capacitive load that is within the ATL43x region of stability, shown in Figure 14 through
Figure 21. Also, designers may use capacitive loads to improve the transient response or for power supply
decoupling.
Figure 14 through Figure 21 should be used as a guide for capacitor selection and compensation. It is
characterized using ceramic capacitors with very-low ESR. When it is desirable to use a capacitor within the
unstable region, higher ESR capacitors can be used to stabilize ATL43x or an external series resistance can be
added. For more information and guidance on ESR values, see Designing with the "Advanced" TL431, ATL431,
SLVA685.
Unlike TL431, the stability boundary is characterized and determined with resistors 250 Ωand greater. Which is
more suitable for low cathode current applications.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
When using ATL43x in a flyback supply (see Figure 29) it is often common for designers to place the bias
resistor between the Anode of the Opto-Coupler and the output voltage (VO= 24 V). However, this makes
ATL43x more susceptible to EOS/ESD damage. Therefore, TI recommends to place the bias resistor between
the Cathodes of the Opto-Coupler and ATL43x, as shown in Figure 29. For further explanation, see Designing
with the "Advanced" TL431, ATL431, SLVA685.
When using ATL43x as a Linear Regulator to supply a load, designers will typically use a bypass capacitor on
the output/cathode pin. Be sure that the capacitance is within the stability criteria shown in Figure 14 through
Figure 21.
To not exceed the maximum cathode current, be sure that the supply voltage is current limited. Also, be sure to
limit the current being driven into the Ref pin, as not to exceed it's absolute maximum rating.
For applications shunting high currents, pay attention to the cathode and anode trace lengths, adjusting the width
of the traces to have the proper current density.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
Place decoupling capacitors as close to the device as possible. Use appropriate widths for traces when shunting
high currents to avoid excessive voltage drops.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) reserves the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other changes to its
semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest issue. Buyers
should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete.
TI’s published terms of sale for semiconductor products (http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/stdterms.htm) apply to the sale of packaged integrated
circuit products that TI has qualified and released to market. Additional terms may apply to the use or sale of other types of TI products and
services.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is
accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such reproduced
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI products or services with statements
different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the
associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyers and others who are developing systems that incorporate TI products (collectively, “Designers”) understand and agree that Designers
remain responsible for using their independent analysis, evaluation and judgment in designing their applications and that Designers have
full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety of Designers' applications and compliance of their applications (and of all TI products
used in or for Designers’ applications) with all applicable regulations, laws and other applicable requirements. Designer represents that, with
respect to their applications, Designer has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that (1) anticipate dangerous
consequences of failures, (2) monitor failures and their consequences, and (3) lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and
take appropriate actions. Designer agrees that prior to using or distributing any applications that include TI products, Designer will
thoroughly test such applications and the functionality of such TI products as used in such applications.
TI’s provision of technical, application or other design advice, quality characterization, reliability data or other services or information,
including, but not limited to, reference designs and materials relating to evaluation modules, (collectively, “TI Resources”) are intended to
assist designers who are developing applications that incorporate TI products; by downloading, accessing or using TI Resources in any
way, Designer (individually or, if Designer is acting on behalf of a company, Designer’s company) agrees to use any particular TI Resource
solely for this purpose and subject to the terms of this Notice.
TI’s provision of TI Resources does not expand or otherwise alter TI’s applicable published warranties or warranty disclaimers for TI
products, and no additional obligations or liabilities arise from TI providing such TI Resources. TI reserves the right to make corrections,
enhancements, improvements and other changes to its TI Resources. TI has not conducted any testing other than that specifically
described in the published documentation for a particular TI Resource.
Designer is authorized to use, copy and modify any individual TI Resource only in connection with the development of applications that
include the TI product(s) identified in such TI Resource. NO OTHER LICENSE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY ESTOPPEL OR OTHERWISE
TO ANY OTHER TI INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT, AND NO LICENSE TO ANY TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHT OF TI OR ANY THIRD PARTY IS GRANTED HEREIN, including but not limited to any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
regarding or referencing third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services, or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of TI Resources may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
TI RESOURCES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR
REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS, TITLE, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS. TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY DESIGNER AGAINST ANY CLAIM,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON ANY COMBINATION OF
PRODUCTS EVEN IF DESCRIBED IN TI RESOURCES OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL,
DIRECT, SPECIAL, COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN
CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Unless TI has explicitly designated an individual product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949
and ISO 26262), TI is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements.
Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such
products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards
and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must
ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in
life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use.
Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life
support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all
medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.
TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product).
Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications
and that proper product selection is at Designers’ own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory
requirements in connection with such selection.
Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer’s non-
compliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
