Order this document by LM337/D The LM337 is an adjustable 3-terminal negative voltage regulator capable of supplying in excess of 1.5 A over an output voltage range of -1.2 V to - 37 V. This voltage regulator is exceptionally easy to use and requires only two external resistors to set the output voltage. Further, it employs internal current limiting, thermal shutdown and safe area compensation, making it essentially blow-out proof. The LM337 serves a wide variety of applications including local, on card regulation. This device can also be used to make a programmable output regulator, or by connecting a fixed resistor between the adjustment and output, the LM337 can be used as a precision current regulator. * Output Current in Excess of 1.5 A * * * * * * * THREE-TERMINAL ADJUSTABLE NEGATIVE VOLTAGE REGULATOR SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA Output Adjustable between -1.2 V and - 37 V Internal Thermal Overload Protection Internal Short Circuit Current Limiting Constant with Temperature T SUFFIX PLASTIC PACKAGE CASE 221A Output Transistor Safe-Area Compensation Floating Operation for High Voltage Applications Eliminates Stocking many Fixed Voltages Available in Surface Mount D2PAK and Standard 3-Lead Transistor Package Heatsink surface connected to Pin 2. 1 2 3 Pin 1.

CAdj, when used, is connected between the adjustment pin and ground. 5. Since Long Term Stability cannot be measured on each device before shipment, this specification is an engineering estimate of average stability from lot to lot. 6. Power dissipation within an IC voltage regulator produces a temperature gradient on the die, affecting individual IC components on the die. These effects can be minimized by proper integrated circuit design and layout techniques. Thermal Regulation is the effect of these temperature gradients on the output voltage and is expressed in percentage of output change per watt of power change in a specified time. 2 MOTOROLA ANALOG IC DEVICE DATA LM337 Representative Schematic Diagram Adjust 60 100 2.0k 2.5k 810 21k Vout 10k 800 15pF 25pF 220 5.0k 75 0 60k 100k 2.0k 15pF 800 18k 4.0k 6.0k 100 1.0k 2.2k 3.0k 9.6k 18k 270 240 5.0pF 100pF 30k 2.0 pF 250 20k 5.0k 8.0k 0.2 100k 600 15 2.9k 4.0k 155 2.4k 500 15 500 0.05 Vin This device contains 39 active transistors.

In operation, the LM337 develops and maintains a nominal -1.25 V reference (Vref) between its output and adjustment terminals. This reference voltage is converted to a programming current (IPROG) by R1 (see Figure 17), and this constant current flows through R2 from ground. The regulated output voltage is given by: V out + Vref 1 ) RR2 ) IAdj R2 1 Since the current into the adjustment terminal (IAdj) represents an error term in the equation, the LM337 was designed to control IAdj to less than 100 A and keep it constant. To do this, all quiescent operating current is returned to the output terminal. This imposes the requirement for a minimum load current. If the load current is less than this minimum, the output voltage will rise. Since the LM337 is a floating regulator, it is only the voltage differential across the circuit which is important to performance, and operation at high voltages with respect to ground is possible. Figure 17. Basic Circuit Configuration + Vout R2 IPROG IAdj + CO Adjust Vref R1 degrading regulation. The ground end of R2 can be returned near the load ground to provide remote ground sensing and improve load regulation. External Capacitors A 1.0 F tantalum input bypass capacitor (Cin) is recommended to reduce the sensitivity to input line impedance. The adjustment terminal may be bypassed to ground to improve ripple rejection. This capacitor (CAdj) prevents ripple from being amplified as the output voltage is increased. A 10 F capacitor should improve ripple rejection about 15 dB at 120 Hz in a 10 V application. An output capacitance (CO) in the form of a 1.0 F tantalum or 10 F aluminum electrolytic capacitor is required for stability. Protection Diodes When external capacitors are used with any IC regulator it is sometimes necessary to add protection diodes to prevent the capacitors from discharging through low current points into the regulator. Figure 18 shows the LM337 with the recommended protection diodes for output voltages in excess of -25 V or high capacitance values (CO > 25 F, CAdj > 10 F). Diode D1 prevents CO from discharging thru the IC during an input short circuit. Diode D2 protects against capacitor CAdj discharging through the IC during an output short circuit. The combination of diodes D1 and D2 prevents CAdj from the discharging through the IC during an input short circuit. Figure 18.

For best performance, the programming resistor (R1) should be connected as close to the regulator as possible to minimize line drops which effectively appear in series with the reference, thereby -Vin R1 LM337 Vin Vout D2 1N4002 - Vout D1 1N4002 3.5 JUNCTION-TO-AIR (C/W) R JA, THERMAL RESISTANCE 80 PD(max) for TA = +50C 70 3.0 Free Air Mounted Vertically 60 IIII IIII IIII IIII 2.0 oz.
