DESCRIPTION
The TL317 is an adjustable three-terminal
positive-voltage regulator capable of supplying 100
mA over an output-voltage range of 1.25 V to 32 V. It
is exceptionally easy to use and requires only two
external resistors to set the output voltage.
In addition to higher performance than fixed
regulators, this regulator offers full overload
protection available only in integrated circuits.
Included on the chip are current-limiting and
thermal-overload protection. All overload-protection
circuitry remains fully functional, even when
ADJUSTMENT is disconnected. Normally, no
capacitors are needed unless the device is situated
far from the input filter capacitors, in which case an
input bypass is needed. An optional output capacitor
can be added to improve transient response.
ADJUSTMENT can be bypassed to achieve very high
ripple rejection, which is difficult to achieve with
standard three-terminal regulators.
In addition to replacing fixed regulators, the TL317 regulator is useful in a wide variety of other applications.
Since the regulator is floating and sees only the input-to-output differential voltage, supplies of several hundred
volts can be regulated as long as the maximum input-to-output differential is not exceeded. Its primary
application is that of a programmable output regulator, but by connecting a fixed resistor between ADJUSTMENT
and OUTPUT, this device can be used as a precision current regulator. Supplies with electronic shutdown can be
achieved by clamping ADJUSTMENT to ground, programming the output to 1.2 V, where most loads draw little
current.
