NSC LM337H

LM137/LM337
3-Terminal Adjustable Negative Regulators
General Description
The LM137/LM337 are adjustable 3-terminal negative voltage regulators capable of supplying in excess of −1.5A over
an output voltage range of −1.2V to −37V. These regulators
are exceptionally easy to apply, requiring only 2 external
resistors to set the output voltage and 1 output capacitor for
frequency compensation. The circuit design has been optimized for excellent regulation and low thermal transients.
Further, the LM137 series features internal current limiting,
thermal shutdown and safe-area compensation, making
them virtually blowout-proof against overloads.
The LM137/LM337 serve a wide variety of applications including local on-card regulation, programmable-output voltage regulation or precision current regulation. The LM137/
LM337 are ideal complements to the LM117/LM317
adjustable positive regulators.

Note 1: Unless otherwise specified, these specifications apply −55˚C ≤ Tj ≤ +150˚C for the LM137, 0˚C ≤ Tj ≤ +125˚C for the LM337; VIN − VOUT = 5V; and IOUT
= 0.1A for the TO-39 package and IOUT = 0.5A for the TO-3, SOT-223 and TO-220 packages. Although power dissipation is internally limited, these specifications
are applicable for power dissipations of 2W for the TO-39 and SOT-223 (see Application Hints), and 20W for the TO-3, and TO-220. IMAX is 1.5A for the TO-3,
SOT-223 and TO-220 packages, and 0.2A for the TO-39 package.
Note 2: Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are
covered under the specification for thermal regulation. Load regulation is measured on the output pin at a point 1⁄8" below the base of the TO-3 and TO-39 packages.
Note 3: Selected devices with tightened tolerance reference voltage available.

Thermal Regulation
When power is dissipated in an IC, a temperature gradient
occurs across the IC chip affecting the individual IC circuit
components. With an IC regulator, this gradient can be especially severe since power dissipation is large. Thermal
regulation is the effect of these temperature gradients on
output voltage (in percentage output change) per Watt of
power change in a specified time. Thermal regulation error is
independent of electrical regulation or temperature coefficient, and occurs within 5 ms to 50 ms after a change in
power dissipation. Thermal regulation depends on IC layout
as well as electrical design. The thermal regulation of a
voltage regulator is defined as the percentage change of
VOUT, per Watt, within the first 10 ms after a step of power is
applied. The LM137’s specification is 0.02%/W, max.

Thermal Regulation
ended, the thermal regulation again shows a 3 mV step at
the LM137 chip cools off. Note that the load regulation error
of about 8 mV (0.08%) is additional to the thermal regulation
error. In Figure 2, when the 10W pulse is applied for 100 ms,
the output drifts only slightly beyond the drift in the first
10 ms, and the thermal error stays well within 0.1% (10 mV).
(Continued)
In Figure 1, a typical LM137’s output drifts only 3 mV (or
0.03% of VOUT = −10V) when a 10W pulse is applied for
10 ms. This performance is thus well inside the specification
limit of 0.02%/W x 10W = 0.2% max. When the 10W pulse is

Application Hints
When a value for θ(H−A) is found using the equation shown,
a heatsink must be selected that has a value that is less than
or equal to this number.
HEATSINKING SOT-223 PACKAGE PARTS
The SOT-223 (“MP”) packages use a copper plane on the
PCB and the PCB itself as a heatsink. To optimize the heat
sinking ability of the plane and PCB, solder the tab of the
package to the plane.
Figures 3, 4 show the information for the SOT-223 package.
Figure 4 assumes a θ(J−A) of 75˚C/W for 1 ounce copper and
51˚C/W for 2 ounce copper and a maximum junction temperature of 125˚C.
