LM317A
Overview
The LM317A adjustable 3-terminal, positive-voltage regulators are capable of supplying current in excess of 1.5 A over a 1.25-V to 37-V output range and provide 1% output-voltage accuracy. Both line regulation and load regulation are better achieved with the LM317A device than with standard fixed regulators.
