- The LM317T is an adjustable 3-terminal positive voltage regulator capable of supplying different DC voltage outputs other than the fixed voltage power supply of +5 or +12 volts, or as a variable output voltage from a few volts up to some maximum value all with currents of about 1.5 amperes.
- For getting a stable output the input voltage must be 2 to 3 volt higher than the output.
Applications
- Voltage step down circuits
- Lab power supplies
- Battery Chargers
- Solar Power Supplies
- Microcontroller Related Applications
- DC to DC converters
- Portable Instruments
