DESCRIPTION

The LM120 series are three-terminal negative regulators with a fixed output voltage of 5V, 12V, and 15V, and up to 1.5A load current capability. Where other voltages are required, the LM137 and LM137HV series provide an output voltage range of
1.2V to 47V.
The LM120 need only one external component—a compensation capacitor at the output, making them easy to apply. Worst case specifications on output voltage deviation due to any combination of line, load or temperature variation assure satisfactory system operation.
SNVS756C –APRIL 1998–REVISED APRIL 2013
Exceptional effort has been made to make the LM120 Series immune to overload conditions. The regulators have current limiting which is independent of temperature, combined with thermal overload protection. Internal current limiting protects against momentary faults while thermal shutdown prevents junction temperatures from exceeding safe limits during prolonged overloads.
Although primarily intended for fixed output voltage applications, the LM120 Series may be programmed for higher output voltages with a simple resistive divider. The low quiescent drain current of the devices allows this technique to be used with good regulation.

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

Lead and line regulation — 0.01% temperature stability — 0.2% †Determines Zener current. ††Solid tantalum. An LM120-12 or LM120-15 may be used to permit higher input voltages, but the regulated output voltage must be at least 15V when using the LM120-12 and 18V for the LM120-15. **Select resistors to set output voltage. 2 ppm/°C tracking suggested.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

Figure 16. High Stability 1 Amp Regulator
*Resistor tolerance of R1 and R2 determine matching of (+) and () inputs. **Necessary only if raw supply capacitors are more than 3from regulators An LM3086N array may substitute for Q1, D1 and D2 for better stability and tracking. In the array diode transistors Q5 and Q4 (in parallel) make up D2; similarly, Q1 and Q2 become D1 and Q3 replaces the 2N2222.

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.

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.
