Regulator IC forms convenient overvoltage Detector - 09/28/00 EDN Design Ideas: Figure 1 shows a simple, stand-alone overvoltage detector. The intent of the circuit is to monitor a voltage, Monitor, and set the output, VOUT, high when the monitored voltage exceeds a preset threshold. The minimum allowable threshold for this circuit is 1.25V. The operation of the circuit revolves around the TLV431 shunt regulator. This IC is based on the popular TL431 shunt regulator. The difference is that the TLV431's internal reference is 1.25V, as opposed to 2.5V for the TL431. When the voltage at the control input is less than 1.25V, the regulator's cathode current is essentially zero Design by Robert Bell

Regulator Monitors its input voltage - 09/12/97 EDN Design Ideas: Two- and three-cell portable systems, such as medical sensors, often monitor their battery input to obtain an early warning of a loss of battery voltage. Typically, this warning is a digital signal that a comparator generates and then sends to the microcontroller. The circuit in Figure 1 presets one side of a dual linear regulator to generate 2.84V at 100 mA. The other side operates open loop, as a comparator, to generate the low-battery warning. both side as are capable of delivering 100- mA output current.
