LM140QML

Three Terminal Positive Regulators

General Description

The monolithic 3-terminal positive voltage regulators employ

internal current-limiting, thermal shutdown and safe-area

compensation, making them essentially indestructible. If ad-

equate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over 0.5A

output current. They are intended as fixed voltage regulators

in a wide range of applications including local (on-card) reg-

ulation for elimination of noise and distribution problems as-

sociated with single-point regulation. In addition to use as

fixed voltage regulators, these devices can be used with ex-

ternal components to obtain adjustable output voltages and

currents.

Considerable effort was expended to make the entire series

of regulators easy to use and minimize the number of external

components. It is not necessary to bypass the output, al-

though this does improve transient response. Input bypassing

is needed only if the regulator is located far from the filter ca-

pacitor of the power supply.

Features

■Complete specifications at 1.0A and 0.5A loads

■No external components

■Internal thermal overload protection

■Internal short circuit current-limiting

■Output transistor safe-area compensation

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is

functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed

specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test

conditions.

Note 2: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJmax (maximum junction temperature), θJA (package

junction to ambient thermal resistance), and TA (ambient temperature). The maximum allowable power dissipation at any temperature is PDmax = (TJmax - TA)/

θJA or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower.

Note 3: Human body model, 100pF discharged through 1.5KΩ

Note 4: VO is set to 90% VRef

Note 5: VDO = VI − VO when VO is 95% of VRef.
