LM117/LM317A/LM317 3-Terminal Adjustable
Regulator
General Description
The LM117 series of adjustable 3-terminal positive voltage
regulators is capable of supplying in excess of 1.
5A over a 1.
2V to 37V output range.
They are exceptionally easy to use and require only two external resistors to set the output voltage.
Further, both line and load regulation are better than standard fixed
regulators.
Also, the LM117 is packaged in standard
transistor packages which are easily mounted and handled.
In addition to higher performance than fixed
regulators, the LM117 series offers full overload protection available only in IC's.
