General Description
The Supertex LR8 is a high voltage, low output current, adjustable
linear regulator. It has a wide operating input voltage range of
13.2 - 450V. The output voltage can be adjusted from 1.20 - 440V
provided that the input voltage is at least 12V greater than the
output voltage. The output voltage can be adjusted by means of
two external resistors R1 and R2 as shown in the typical application
circuits. The LR8 regulates the voltage difference between VOUT
and ADJ pins to a nominal value of 1.20V. The 1.20V is amplied
by the external resistor ratio R1 and R2. An internal constant
bias current of typically 10µA is connected to the ADJ pin. This
increases V
The LR8 has current limiting and temperature limiting. The output
current limit is typically 20mA and the minimum temperature limit
is 125°C. An output short circuit current will therefore be limited
to 20mA. When the junction temperature reaches its temperature
limit, the output current and/or output voltage will decrease to
keep the junction temperature from exceeding its temperature
limit. For SMPS start-up circuit applications, the LR8 turns off
when an external voltage greater than the output voltage of the
LR8 is applied to VOUT of the LR8. To maintain stability, a bypass
capacitor of 1.0µF or larger and a minimum DC output current of
500µA are required.
by a constant voltage of 10µA times R2.
