It is exceptionally easy to use and requires only two external resistors to set the output voltage. Furthermore, both line and load regulation are better than standard fixed regulators. Also, the LM337L is packaged in a standard TO-92 transistor package which is easy to use. In addition to higher performance than fixed regulators, the LM337L offers full overload protection. Included on the chip are current limit, thermal overload protection and safe area protection. All overload protection circuitry remains fully functional even if the adjustment terminal is disconnected. Normally, only a single 1μF solid tantalum output capacitor is needed unless the device is situated more than 6 inches from the input filter capacitors, in which case an input bypass is needed. A larger output capacitor can be added to improve transient response. The adjustment terminal can be bypassed to achieve very high ripple rejection ratios which are difficult to achieve with standard 3-terminal regulators. Besides replacing fixed regulators, the LM337L is useful in a wide variety of other applications. Since the regulator is “floating” and sees only the input-tooutput differential voltage, supplies of several hundred volts can be regulated as long as the maximum input-to-output differential is not exceeded. Also, it makes an especially simple adjustable switching regulator, a programmable output regulator, or by connecting a fixed resistor between the adjustment and output, the LM337L can be used as a precision current regulator. Supplies with electronic shutdown can be achieved by clamping the adjustment terminal to ground which programs the output to 1.2V where most loads draw little current. The LM337L is available in a standard TO-92 transistor package, SO-8 surface mount package, and in our new 12 mil diameter bump DSBGA package. The LM337L is rated for operation over a −25°C to +125°C range. For applications requiring greater output current in excess of 0.5A and 1.5A, see LM137 series data sheets. For the positive complement, see series LM117 and LM317L data sheets.

This will trim the output to well within 1% of −22.00 VDC, without any of the expense or trouble of a trim pot (see LB46). Of course, this technique can be used at any output voltage level. 4 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1998–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM337L LM337L www.ti.com SNVS780D – MAY 1998 – REVISED MAY 2013 REVISION HISTORY Changes from Revision C (May 2013) to Revision D • Page Changed layout of National Data Sheet to TI format ............................................................................................................ 4 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1998–2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM337L 5 PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM www.ti.com 1-Nov-2013 PACKAGING INFORMATION Orderable Device Status (1) Package Type Package Pins Package Drawing Qty Eco Plan Lead/Ball Finish MSL Peak Temp (2) (6) (3) Op Temp (°C) Device Marking (4/5) LM337LM NRND SOIC D 8 95 TBD Call TI Call TI -25 to 100 LM337 LM LM337LM/NOPB ACTIVE SOIC D 8 95 Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) CU SN Level-1-260C-UNLIM -25 to 100 LM337 LM LM337LMX NRND SOIC D 8 2500 TBD Call TI Call TI -25 to 100 LM337 LM LM337LMX/NOPB ACTIVE SOIC D 8 2500 Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) CU SN Level-1-260C-UNLIM -25 to 100 LM337 LM LM337LZ/LFT1 ACTIVE TO-92 LP 3 2000 Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) SN | CU SN Level-1-NA-UNLIM LM337 LZ LM337LZ/LFT3 ACTIVE TO-92 LP 3 2000 Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) SN | CU SN N / A for Pkg Type LM337 LZ LM337LZ/LFT4 ACTIVE TO-92 LP 3 2000 Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) SN | CU SN N / A for Pkg Type LM337 LZ LM337LZ/NOPB ACTIVE TO-92 LP 3 1800 Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) SN | CU SN N / A for Pkg Type -25 to 100 LM337 LZ (1) The marketing status values are defined as follows: ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
