SG137A/SG237A/SG337A SG137/SG237/SG337 1.5 AMP NEGATIVE ADJUSTABLE REGULATOR DESCRIPTION FEATURES The SG137A family of negative adjustable regulators will deliver up to 1.5A output current over an output voltage range of -1.2V to -37V. Silicon General has made significant improvements in these regulators compared to previous devices, such as better line and load regulation, and a maximum output voltage error of 1%. The SG137 family uses the same chip design and guarantees maximum output voltage error of ±2%. • • • • • Every effort has been made to make these devices easy to use and difficult to damage. Internal current and power limiting coupled with true thermal limiting prevents device damage due to overloads or shorts even if the regulator is not fastened to a heat sink. The SG137A/137 family of products are ideal complements to the SG117A/ 117 adjustable positive regulators. 1 % output voltage tolerance 0.01%/V line regulation 0.5% load regulation 0.02%/W thermal regulation Available in hermetic TO-220 HIGH RELIABILITY FEATURES -SG137A/SG137 ♦ Available to MIL-STD-883 and DESC SMD ♦ Scheduled for MIL-M38510 QPL listing ♦ MIL-M38510/11804BYA - JAN137K ♦ LMI level "S" processing available BLOCK DIAGRAM LINFINITY 2/92 Rev 1.1 2/94 Copyright 1994 1 Microelectronics Inc. 11861 Western Avenue ∞ Garden Grove, CA 92841 (714) 898-8121 ∞ FAX: (714) 893-2570 SG137A/SG137 SERIES ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS (Note 1) Power Dissipation ..........................................Internally Limited Input to Output Voltage Differential ....................................40V Storage Temperature Range ............................-65°C to 150°C Operating Junction Temperature Hermetic (K, R, T, L, IG-Packages) ........................... 150°C Lead Temperature (Soldering, 10 Seconds) ............. 300°C Note 1.

TEMPERATURE * The SG137A has load regulation compensation which makes the typical unit read close to zero. This band represents the typical production spread. APPLICATION INFORMATION OUTPUT VOLTAGE The output voltage is determined by two external resistors, R1 & R2(see Figure 7). Where: VREF =Reference Voltage, IADJ = Adjustment Pin Current. In most applications, the second term is small enough to be ignored, typically about 0.5% of VOUT. In more critical applications, the exact formula should be used, with IADJ equal to 65µA. Solving for R2 yields: R2 = Smaller values of R1 and R2 will reduce the influence of IADJ on the output voltage, but the no-load current drain on the regulator will be increased. Typical values for R1 are between 100Ω and 300Ω, giving 12.5 mA and 4.2mA no-load current respectively. There is an additional consideration in selecting R1 the minimum load current specification of the regulator. The operating current of FIGURE 6 The exact formula for the output voltage is: VOUT = VREF ( R2 + R1 R1 ) +I ADJ (R2) LINFINITY 2/92 Rev 1.1 2/94 Copyright 1994 VOUT - VREF VREF + IADJ R1 4 Microelectronics Inc. 11861 Western Avenue ∞ Garden Grove, CA 92841 (714) 898-8121 ∞ FAX: (714) 893-2570 SG137A/SG137 SERIES APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued) EXAMPLES: 1. A precision 10V regulator to supply up to 1Amp load current. the SG137A flows from input to output. If this current is not absorbed by the load, the output of the regulator will rise above the regulated value. The current drawn by R1 and R2 is normally high enough to absorb the current, but care must be taken in no– load situations where R1 and R2 have high values. The maximum value for the operating current, which must be absorbed, is 5mA for the SG137A, If input-output voltage differential is less than 10V, the operating current that must be absorbed drops to 3mA.

Calculate R2 = VOUT - VREF 10V - 1.25V = = 704W (VREF/R1) + IADJ (1.25V/100W) + 65mA 2. A 15V regulator to run off batteries and supply 50mA. VIN MAX = 25V a. To minimize battery drain, select R1 as high as possible R1 = 1.25V 3mA = 417Ω, use 404Ω, 1% TYPICAL APPLICATIONS regulation, temperature drift, long term drift, and noise, can be improved by a factor of 6.6 over the standard regulator configuration. This assumes a zener whose drift and noise is considerably better than the regulator itself. The LM329B has 20PPM/°C maximum drift and about 10 times lower noise than the regulator. In the application shown Figure 8, regulators #2 to #N will track regulator #1 to within ±24mV initially, and to ±60mV over all load, line, and temperature conditions. If any regulator output is shorted to ground, all other outputs will drop to -2V. Load regulation of regulators #2 to #N will be improved by VOUT/1.25V compared to a standard regulator, so regulator #1 should be the one which has the lowest load current.
