Description

The NTE999M integrated circuit is a threeterminal programmable shunt regulator.  This monolithic IC voltage reference operates as a low temperature coefficient zener which is programmable from Vref to 36 volts with two external resistors.  This NTE999M exhibits a wide operating current range of 1.0 to 100mA with a typical dynamic impedance of 0.22Ω.  The characteristics of this reference make it an excellent replacement for zener diodes in many applications such as digital voltmeters, power sup-plies, and op amp circuitry.  The 2.5 volt reference of NTE999M makes it convenient to obtain a stable reference from 5.0 volt logic supplies, and since the NTE999M operates as a shunt regulator, it can be used as either a positive or negative voltage reference.
