TL431ACDBZR replacements should keep the SOT-23-3 TL431 pinout, 2.495V reference, 36V range, 100mA sink current, and 1% tolerance.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

Confirm 36V range and 100mA sink.

Package risklow

Most kept parts claim SOT-23-3.

Firmware risklow

No firmware interface.

Sourcing riskmedium

External parts need ingestion.

Can it be replaced directly?

TL431AIDBZR is the closest reviewed candidate, but FAE review is still required.

Best replacement path

Prefer indexed same-family TL431 A/B/Q DBZ parts, then verify pinout and ratings.

Main risk

Unchecked pinout and key electrical limits.
