LM140L/LM340L Series 3-Terminal Positive Regulators

February 1995

LM140L/LM340L Series 3-Terminal Positive Regulators

General Description

The LM140L series of three terminal positive regulators is
available with several fixed output voltages making them
useful in a wide range of applications. The LM140LA is an
improved version of the LM78LXX series with a tighter out­put voltage tolerance (specified over the full military temper­ature range), higher ripple rejection, better regulation and
lower quiescent current. The LM140LA regulators have

specification, 0.04%/V line regulation, and

0.01%/mA load regulation. When used as a zener diode/re­sistor combination replacement, the LM140LA usually re­sults in an effective output impedance improvement of two
orders of magnitude, and lower quiescent current. These
regulators can provide local on card regulation, eliminating
the distribution problems associated with single point regu­lation. The voltages available allow the LM140LA to be used
in logic systems, instrumentation, Hi-Fi, and other solid state
electronic equipment. Although designed primarily as fixed
voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external
components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.

The LM140LA/LM340LA are available in the low profile
metal three lead TO-39 (H) and the LM340LA are also avail­able in the plastic TO-92 (Z). With adequate heat sinking the
regulator can deliver 100 mA output current. Current limiting
is included to limit the peak output current to a safe value.
Safe area protection for the output transistor is provided to
limit internal power dissipation. If internal power dissipation

becomes too high for the heat sinking provided, the thermal
shut-down circuit takes over, preventing the IC from over­heating.

For applications requiring other voltages, see LM117L Data
Sheet.
