I had a 24 volt switched-mode power supply but needed 19 volts. To do this, I simply changed the voltage divider on the TL431. I connected a potentiometer (value corresponding to the old resistor that I removed) between the plus 24 volts and the 2.5 volt sense point of the TL431 and reduced the value until I could measure 19 volts at the output. Then I replaced it with a fixed resistor.

It depends on the design, some controllers will have undevoltage protection on the VCC pin that feed them from a separate winding on the primary. Lowering the voltage of the output will lower VCC too. Doing the other way (try to change the voltage up) can also fail because the same issue. Some PSUs are pretty basic and will not care. Other have this protections and zeners as double safety, usually triggering from a dedicated optocoupler in case that everything fails (laptop chargers). also note that 817-alike opto polarization changes and its components need to be upgraded. Rising the voltage even when it looks "FINE" is not advisable. This PSUs have nothing to spare. Spikes when swithing off will kill the mosfet or reverse voltage will exceed the rated of the ouput diode. Otherwise ATX psus will make a great labo PSU ...and they are NOT. Tweaking an ATX PSU to ouput a higher voltage is a recipe for disaster.

I'd have to dig it up, but there was even a switching buck regulator example in one of my old Motorola IC catalogs that used a linear regulator as the sole control in the circuit. Not sure how accurate it was, but it was impressive to see someone using a linear circuit to do switching regulation. Really are lots of applications for something you would not think of.

Strange - I use TL431 all the time. One of the best ways I found to control the current of a high-power LED (either linearly or through a switching converter) is with an op-amp comparing shunt voltage to a reference. TL431 is the exact thing you need for the job - the 2.495V it produces by default can be easily divided into anything you need, and, unlike a Zener diode, it can sink a wide range of currents with Vref staying within a tight range. It's basically an extremely accurate Zener that doesn't require you to meticulously precalculate the value of R_Z. Simply great!
@TiredOldDad13 жыл бұрын
I am an electronic repair technician and I work on many types of switch mode power supplies. The TL431 can fail sometimes and it is difficult to diagnose because it does not short or open like a defective diode would. It will measure identical to a known good one using a multimeter or a curve tracer. In some cases the only way to know is to replace it. The symptom is usually a pulsing output where the DC is jumping past the rated voltage output. There are other things that can cause this symptom too, making for a difficult diagnosis. Your video was extremely good. Thank you!

@arthurmoore94883 жыл бұрын
It's really insane how much voltage drift things like temperature can cause. Of course, that's what happens when you amplify errors. Going from a 24V signal down to a 5V for ADC measurements doesn't sound so bad. Until you realize that the max needs to be closer to 30, so any errors are magnified 6x. At that level, even small differences become a pain to deal with.
@jmi59693 жыл бұрын
"Ever lived" is an overstatement. There is a whole class of temperature-compensated zeners, like the 1N82x series. The genuine 1N829 costs about two hundred times more than noname Chinese TL431s, but it has a rated tempco of 0.0005%/K. That's 0.05% change over a 100K interval, far better than even the best-grade genuine TL431s. And if the app needs the lowest possible noise, again, the zeners are naturally quieter.

Used the TL431 in several applications,. Yes, very versatile component! You call the internals of the TL431 a comparator, but it is really an opamp. You can use an opamp as a comparator, but in most cases you cannot use a comparator as an opamp, because comparators are not stable in the linear region. A TL431 can be used in the linear region, when you use proper compensation.

I mainly use it for battery discharge indication on pretty much all of my battery-powered things. There is a simple circuit with 4 resistors, TL431, 1 NPN transistor and an LED that lights up when the input voltage drops below a threshold set by the resistors, telling you to stop using the thing and charge it. The warning threshold is set by the ratio between resistors and can be adjusted for use with various amounts of NiMH or Li-ion batteries in series. For example, having a 3/10 ratio (10K/33K) makes the warning LED light up at about 3.3-3.35V, or 3/1 (33k/10k) for 3S Li-ion and 10.7 V (3.5 per cell) warning. When this is added as a module it draws very little power when idle, so i recommend everyone to try it

@AlHasan Sameh There is no beta because there is no current-to-current multiplication; input current does not change much at all. The TL431 is an "almost true" differential voltage-to-current converter. Once it had reached the on-state threshold, it converts 1mV input (referenced to the threshold voltage) to 1mA of output current. And the maximal voltage gain is around 1000 or less (compared to around 3000-6000 for a silicon BJT).

Hi. help me to understand why you chose the voltage drop on tl431 2.5v at 9:30 sec of the video? I thought there should be about 1.8v. Sorry for my english.

I once tried to build a switched mode power supply on my own.. but the capacitor smashed into my head( it exploded).. that event made me afraid of those...
