General Description

The LM196 is a 10 amp regulator adjustable from 1 25V to 15V which uses a revolutionary new IC fabrication structure to combine high power discrete transistor technology with modern monolithic linear IC processing This combination yields a high-performance single-chip regulator capable of supplying in excess of 10 amps and operating at power levels up to 70 watts The regulators

Key Features

  • of popular lower power adjustable regulators such as LM117 and LM138 including current limiting and thermal limiting The combination of these features makes the LM196 immune to blowout from output overloads or shorts even if the adjustment pin is accidentally disconnected All devices are ‘‘burned-in’’ in thermal shutdown to guarantee proper operation of these protective features under actual overload conditions Output voltage is continuously adjustable from 1 25V to 15V Higher output voltages ar.
