3- Terminal Adjustable Regulator

The GM317 is an adjustable 3-terminal positive voltage reg- ulator capable of supplying in excess of 1.5 A over an out- put voltage range of 1.2 V to 37 V. This voltage Regulator is exceptionally easy to use and requires only two external re- sistors to set the output voltage. Further, it employs internal current limiting, thermal shutdown and safe area compen- sation, making it essentially blow-out proof. The GM317 a wide variety of applications including local, application, and 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 out- put. The GM317 CAN be used as a precise current regula- tor.
