LM137/LM337 3-Terminal Adjusta

The LM137/LM337 are adjustable 3-terminal negative voltage
regulators capable of supplying in excess of −1.5A over
an output voltage range of −1.2V to −37V. These regulators
are exceptionally easy to apply, requiring only 2 external
resistors to set the output voltage and 1 output capacitor for
frequency compensation. The circuit design has been optimized
for excellent regulation and low thermal transients.
Further, the LM137 series features internal current limiting,
thermal shutdown and safe-area compensation, making
them virtually blowout-proof against overloads.
The LM137/LM337 serve a wide variety of applications including
local on-card regulation, programmable-output voltage
regulation or precision current regulation. The LM137/
LM337 are ideal complements to the LM117/LM317
adjustable positive regulators.
