Note 1: “Absolute Maximum Ratings” indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified, these specifications apply: −55˚C ≤ T

is 1.5A for the TO-3 package and 0.2A for the TO-39 package.
Note 3: Regulation ismeasured at constantjunction temperature, usingpulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltagedue to heatingeffects are covered under the specification for thermal regulations. 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 4: Refer to RETS137HVH drawing for LM137HVH or RETS137HVK for LM137HVK military specifications.
