LM340, A Series Three-Terminal Positive Fixed Voltage
Regulators
This family of fixed voltage
regulators are monolithic integrated circuits capable of driving loads in excess of 1.
0 A.
These three–terminal
regulators employ internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe–area compensation.
Devices are available with improved specifications, including a 2% output voltage tolerance, on A–suffix 5.
0, 12 and 15 V device types.
Although designed primarily as a fixed voltage
regulator, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.
This series of devices can be used with a series–pass
transistor to boost output c...
