LM338 Datasheet (STMicroelectronics) - Three-terminal 5A adjustable voltage regulator

LM338, Three-terminal 5A adjustable voltage regulator

bsThe LM138, LM238, LM338 are adjustable 3Oterminal 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(sand require only 2 resistors to set the output voltage.

Careful circuit design has resulted in ucoutstandin
