Default Re: High voltage regulator circuit.

Could the reference diode be replaced by a TL431?

Take care if you build a circuit with high voltage on a variable resistor and make sure it can handle the power dissipation in the resistive element.

Reverse biased power diodes across the output terminals and the pass transistor are usually recommended.
