LM138 - LM238 - LM338 Three-terminal 5 A adjustable voltage regulators Features ■ Guaranteed 7 A peak output current ■ Guaranteed 5 A output current ) ■ Adjustable output down to 1.2 V t(s ■ Line regulation typically 0.005 %/V uc ■ Load regulation typically 0.1 % d ■ Guaranteed thermal regulation ro ■ Current limit constant with temperature P ■ Standard 3-lead transistor package olete Description bs The LM138, LM238, LM338 are adjustable 3O terminal positive voltage regulators capable of - supplying in excess of 5 A over a 1.2 V to 32 V ) output range. They are exceptionally easy to use t(s and require only 2 resistors to set the output voltage. Careful circuit design has resulted in uc outstanding load and line regulation comparable d to many commercial power supplies.
