The AD584 voltage reference, along with an external pass transistor, such as the NTE-244, allows the synthesis of shunt regulators that can handle as much as 50W. The circuit shown can be used to clip ...

Developed as a three-terminal shunt regulator, the popular and multiple-sourced TL431 IC offers designers many intriguing possibilities beyond its intended application. Internally, the TL431 comprises ...

A linear regulator employs an active (bipolar junction transistor (BJT) or MOSFET) pass device (series or shunt) controlled by a high-gain differential amplifier.

3. The TI LM4040 2.5-V voltage-reference curve shows its high voltage accuracy even when biased well below 100 µA. Using the same 12-V example as above, but with 75 µA for I z instead of 5 mA ...
