September 2014

LM78XX / LM78XXA
3-Terminal 1 A Positive Voltage Regulator
Features Description
• Output Current up to 1 A The LM78XX series of three-terminal positive regulators
• Output Voltages: 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 24 V is available in the TO-220 package and with several fixed
output voltages, making them useful in a wide range of
• Thermal Overload Protection
applications. Each type employs internal current limiting,
• Short-Circuit Protection thermal shut-down, and safe operating area protection. If
• Output Transistor Safe Operating Area Protection adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over
1 A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed-
voltage regulators, these devices can be used with exter-
nal components for adjustable voltages and currents.

Absolute Maximum Ratings


Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be opera-
ble above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended. In addi-
tion, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability. The
absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only. Values are at TA = 25°C unless otherwise noted.

LM317
Application Notes: to improve the ripple rejection of about 15 dB (
CADJ).
The LM317 provides an internal reference
voltage of 1.25V between the output and An 1µF tantalium ( or 25 µFAluminium
adjustments terminals. This is used to set a electrolitic) capacitor on the output to improve
constant current flow across an external resistor transient response. In additional to external
divider show below, giving an output voltage capacitors, it is good practice to add protection
VO of: diodes, as shown in below.

VO = VREF ( 1 + R 2 R 1 ) + IADJ R2 D1 protect the device against input short circuit,


while D2 protect against output short circuit for
The device was designed to minimize the term capacitance discharging.
IADJ ( 100 m A max) and to maintain it very
constant with line and load changes. Usually,
the error term IADJ V R2 can be neglected. To
obtain the previous requirement, all the
regulator quiescent current is returned to the
output terminal, imposing a minimum load
current condition. If the load is insufficient, the
output voltage will rise. Since the LM317 is a
floating regulator and ” sees” only the input- to-
output differential voltage, supplies of very high
voltage with respect to ground can be regulated
as long as the maximum input- to- output
differential is not exceeded. Furthermore,
programmable regulator are easily obtainable
and, by connecting a fixed resistor between the
adjustment and output, the device can be used as
a precision current regulator. In order to
optimise the load regulation, the current set
resistor R1 show below should be tied as close
as possible to the regulator, while the ground
terminal of R2 should be near the ground of the
load to provide remote ground sensing.
Performance may be improved with added
capacitance as follow:

An input bypass capacitor of 0.1µF

An adjustment terminal to ground 10µF

LM317 3-TERMINAL ADJUSTABLE REGULATORS
DESCRIPTION
The LM317 are adjustable 3-terminal positive-voltage regulators capable of supplying 1.5A over
a differential voltage range of 3V to 40V. They are exceptionally easy to use and require only two
external resistors to set the output voltage. Both input and output regulation is better than
standard fixed regulators.
In addition to higher performance than fixed regulators, these regulators offer full overload
protection available only in integrated circuits. Included on the chip are current limit, thermal
overload protection, and safe-area protection. All overload protection circuit remains fully
functional even if the adjustment terminal is disconnected. Normally, no capacitors are needed
unless the device is situated far from the input filter capacitors in which case an input bypass is
needed. An optional output capacitor can be added to improve transient response.
The primary applications of each of these regulators is that of a programmable output regulator,
but by connecting a fixed resistor between adjustment terminal and the output terminal, each
device can be used as a precision current regulator. Even though the regulator is floating and
sees only the input-to-output differential voltage, use of these devices to regulate output voltages
that would cause the maximum-rated differential voltage to be exceeded if the output became
shorted is not recommended

(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended
Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and
specifications.
(3) The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is a function of the maximum junction temperature for operation
(TJMAX = 125°C or 150°C), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA), and the ambient temperature (TA). PDMAX = (TJMAX −
TA)/θJA. If this dissipation is exceeded, the die temperature rises above TJMAX and the electrical specifications do not apply. If the die
temperature rises above 150°C, the device goes into thermal shutdown. For the TO-3 package (NDS), the junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance (θJA) is 39°C/W. When using a heat sink, θJA is the sum of the 4°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance (θJC) of the TO-3
package and the case-to-ambient thermal resistance of the heat sink. For the TO-220 package (NDE), θJA is 54°C/W and θJC is 4°C/W.
If SOT-223 is used, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 174°C/W and can be reduced by a heat sink (see Applications Hints on
heat sinking).If the DDPAK\TO-263 package is used, the thermal resistance can be reduced by increasing the PCB copper area
thermally connected to the package: Using 0.5 square inches of copper area, θJA is 50°C/W; with 1 square inch of copper area, θJA is
37°C/W; and with 1.6 or more inches of copper area, θJA is 32°C/W.

7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview
The LM340 and LM7805 devices are a family of fixed output positive voltage regulators with outputs ranging from
3 V to 15 V. They accept up to 35 V of input voltage and with proper heat dissipation can provide over 1.5 A of
current. With a combination of current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe area protection, these regulators
eliminate any concern of damage. These features paired with excellent line and load regulation make the LM340
and LM7805 Family versatile solutions to a wide range of power management designs. Although the LM340 and
LM7805 Family were designed primarily as fixed-voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external
component for adjustable voltage and current.

7.2 Functional Block Diagram

7.3 Feature Description


7.3.1 Output Current
With proper considerations, the LM340 and LM7805 Family can exceed 1.5-A output current. Depending on the
desired package option, the effective junction-to-ambient thermal resistance can be reduced through heat
sinking, allowing more power to be dissipated in the device.

7.3.2 Current Limiting Feature


In the event of a short circuit at the output of the regulator, each device has an internal current limit to protect it
from damage. The typical current limits for the LM340 and LM7805 Family is 2.4 A.

7.3.3 Thermal Shutdown


Each package type employs internal current limiting and thermal shutdown to provide safe operation area
protection. If the junction temperature is allowed to rise to 150°C, the device will go into thermal shutdown.

7.4 Device Functional Modes


There are no functional modes for this device.

8 Application and Implementation

NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

8.1 Application Information


The LM340x and LM7805 series is designed with thermal protection, output short-circuit protection, and output
transistor safe area protection. However, as with any IC regulator, it becomes necessary to take precautions to
assure that the regulator is not inadvertently damaged. The following describes possible misapplications and
methods to prevent damage to the regulator.

8.1.1 Shorting the Regulator Input


When using large capacitors at the output of these regulators, a protection diode connected input to output
(Figure 15) may be required if the input is shorted to ground. Without the protection diode, an input short causes
the input to rapidly approach ground potential, while the output remains near the initial VOUT because of the
stored charge in the large output capacitor. The capacitor will then discharge through a large internal input to
output diode and parasitic transistors. If the energy released by the capacitor is large enough, this diode, low
current metal, and the regulator are destroyed. The fast diode in Figure 15 shunts most of the capacitors
discharge current around the regulator. Generally no protection diode is required for values of output capacitance
≤ 10 μF.

8.1.2 Raising the Output Voltage Above the Input Voltage


Because the output of the device does not sink current, forcing the output high can cause damage to internal low
current paths in a manner similar to that just described in Shorting the Regulator Input.

8.1.3 Regulator Floating Ground


When the ground pin alone becomes disconnected, the output approaches the unregulated input, causing
possible damage to other circuits connected to VOUT. If ground is reconnected with power ON, damage may also
occur to the regulator. This fault is most likely to occur when plugging in regulators or modules with on card
regulators into powered up sockets. The power must be turned off first, the thermal limit ceases operating, or the
ground must be connected first if power must be left on. See Figure 16.

8.1.4 Transient Voltages


If transients exceed the maximum rated input voltage of the device, or reach more than 0.8 V below ground and
have sufficient energy, they will damage the regulator. The solution is to use a large input capacitor, a series
input breakdown diode, a choke, a transient suppressor or a combination of these.

Application Information (continued)

Figure 16. Regulator Floating Ground

Figure 17. Transients

When a value for θ(H–A) is found, a heat sink must be selected that has a value that is less than or equal to this
number.
θ(H–A) is specified numerically by the heat sink manufacturer in this catalog or shown in a curve that plots
temperature rise vs power dissipation for the heat sink.

8.2 Typical Applications


8.2.1 Fixed Output Voltage Regulator
The LM340x and LM7805 Family devices are primarily designed to provide fixed output voltage regulation. The
simplest implementation of LM340x and LM7805 Family is shown in Figure 18.

*Required if the regulator is located far from the power supply filter.
**Although no output capacitor is needed for stability, it does help transient response. (If needed, use 0.1-μF, ceramic
disc).

Figure 18. Fixed Output Voltage Regulator

8.2.1.1 Design Requirements


The device component count is very minimal. Although not required, TI recommends employing bypass
capacitors at the output for optimum stability and transient response. These capacitors must be placed as close
as possible to the regulator. If the device is located more than 6 inches from the power supply filter, it is required
to employ input capacitor.

9 Power Supply Recommendations


The LM340 is designed to operate from a wide input voltage up to 35 V. Please refer to electrical characteristics
tables for the minimum input voltage required for line/load regulation. If the device is more than six inches from
the input filter capacitors, an input bypass capacitor, 0.1 μF or greater, of any type is needed for stability.

10 Layout

10.1 Layout Guidelines


Some layout guidelines must be followed to ensure proper regulation of the output voltage with minimum noise.
Traces carrying the load current must be wide to reduce the amount of parasitic trace inductance. To improve
PSRR, a bypass capacitor can be placed at the OUTPUT pin and must be placed as close as possible to the IC.
All that is required for the typical fixed output regulator application circuit is the LM340x/LM7805 Family IC and a
0.22-µF input capacitor if the regulator is placed far from the power supply filter. A 0.1-µF output capacitor is
recommended to help with transient response. In cases when VIN shorts to ground, an external diode must be
placed from VOUT to VIN to divert the surge current from the output capacitor and protect the IC.

10.3 Heat Sinking DDPAK/TO-263 and SOT-223 Package Parts


Both the DDPAK/TO-263 (KTT) and SOT-223 (DCY) packages use a copper plane on the PCB and the PCB
itself as a heat sink. To optimize the heat sinking ability of the plane and PCB, solder the tab of the plane.
Figure 29 shows for the DDPAK/TO-263 the measured values of θ(J–A) for different copper area sizes using a
typical PCB with 1-oz copper and no solder mask over the copper area used for heat sinking.

Heat Sinking DDPAK/TO-263 and SOT-223 Package Parts (continued)


As shown in Figure 29, increasing the copper area beyond 1 square inch produces very little improvement. It
should also be observed that the minimum value of θ(J–A) for the DDPAK/TO-263 package mounted to a PCB is
32°C/W.
As a design aid, Figure 30 shows the maximum allowable power dissipation compared to ambient temperature
for the DDPAK/TO-263 device (assuming θ(J–A) is 35°C/W and the maximum junction temperature is 125°C).

Figure 30. Maximum Power Dissipation vs TAMB for the DDPAK/TO-263 Package

Figure 31 and Figure 32 show the information for the SOT-223 package. Figure 31 assumes a θ(J–A) of 74°C/W
for 1-oz. copper and 51°C/W for 2-oz. copper and a maximum junction temperature of 125°C.

(2)
RoHS: TI defines "RoHS" to mean semiconductor products that are compliant with the current EU RoHS requirements for all 10 RoHS substances, including the requirement that RoHS substance
do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, "RoHS" products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. TI may
reference these types of products as "Pb-Free".
RoHS Exempt: TI defines "RoHS Exempt" to mean products that contain lead but are compliant with EU RoHS pursuant to a specific EU RoHS exemption.
Green: TI defines "Green" to mean the content of Chlorine (Cl) and Bromine (Br) based flame retardants meet JS709B low halogen requirements of <=1000ppm threshold. Antimony trioxide based
flame retardants must also meet the <=1000ppm threshold requirement.

(3)
MSL, Peak Temp. - The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.

(4)
There may be additional marking, which relates to the logo, the lot trace code information, or the environmental category on the device.

(5)
Multiple Device Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one Device Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a continuation
of the previous line and the two combined represent the entire Device Marking for that device.

(6)
Lead finish/Ball material - Orderable Devices may have multiple material finish options. Finish options are separated by a vertical ruled line. Lead finish/Ball material values may wrap to two
lines if the finish value exceeds the maximum column width.

LM120/LM320 Series 3-Terminal Negative Regulators
November 1994

LM120/LM320
Series 3-Terminal Negative Regulators
General Description Features
The LM120 series are three-terminal negative regulators Y Preset output voltage error less than g 3%
with a fixed output voltage of b5V, b12V, and b15V, and Y Preset current limit
up to 1.5A load current capability. Where other voltages are Y Internal thermal shutdown
required, the LM137 and LM137HV series provide an output
voltage range of b1.2V to b47V.
Y Operates with input-output voltage differential down to
1V
The LM120 need only one external componentÐa compen- Y Excellent ripple rejection
sation capacitor at the output, making them easy to apply.
Worst case guarantees on output voltage deviation due to
Y Low temperature drift
any combination of line, load or temperature variation as-
Y Easily adjustable to higher output voltage

Exceptional effort has been made to make the LM120 Se- LM120 Series Packages and Power Capability

down prevents junction temperatures from exceeding safe LM120/LM320 TO-3 (K) 20W 1.5A
limits during prolonged overloads. TO-39 (H) 2W 0.5A
Although primarily intended for fixed output voltage applica-
LM320 TO-220 (T) 15W 1.5A
tions, the LM120 Series may be programmed for higher out-
put voltages with a simple resistive divider. The low quies- LM320M TO-202 (P) 7.5W 0.5A
cent drain current of the devices allows this technique to be
used with good regulation.

Typical Applications

Dual Trimmed Supply Fixed Regulator

TL/H/7767 – 2
*Required if regulator is separated from filter capacitor by more than 3× . For
value given, capacitor must be solid tantalum. 25 mF aluminum electrolytic
may be substituted.
² Required for stability. For value given, capacitor must be solid tantalum. 25
mF aluminum electrolytic may substituted. Values given may be increased
without limit.
For output capacitance in excess of 100 mF, a high current diode from
input to output (1N4001, etc.) will protect the regulator from momentary
input shorts.
