Description
The LM336-2.5/LM336B-2.5 integrated circuits are
precision 2.5V shunt regulators. The monolithic IC voltage
reference operates as a low temperature coefficient 2.5V
zener with 0.2W dynamic impedance. A third terminal on
the LM336-2.5/LM336B-2.5 allows the reference voltage
and temperature coefficient to be trimmed easily. LM336-
2.5/LM336B-2.5 are useful as a precision 2.5V low voltage
reference for digital voltmeters, power s upplies or OP-AMP
circuitry. The 2.5V makes it convenient to obtain a stable
reference from low voltage supplies. Further, since the
LM336-2.5/LM336B-2.5 operate as shunt regulators, they
can be used as either a positive or negative voltage reference.
