3-Terminal Adjustable Regulator
Product Description
The GS317 are adjust able 3-terminal p ositive voltage regu lators is cap able of suppl ying in excess of 1.5A over a 3V t o 40V out put range. They ar e e xceptionally e asy to use and re quire only t wo e xternal resistors to set the output voltage. F urther, both line an d loa d regu lation i s better than standard fixed regulators. In additi on to high er perfo rmance tha n fixed regulators, the GS317 ser ies of fers full overload protection avai lable onl y in IC’ s. Includ ed on th e chip are current limit, therma l overload protection and safe area protection. All overl oad protectio n circ uitry rem ains full y functional eve n if the adju stment terminal i s disconnected.
