General Description
The LM104 series are precision
voltage regulators which can be programmed by a single external resistor to supply any
voltage from 40V down to zero while operating from a single unregulated supply They can also provide 0 01-percent regulation in circuits using a separate floating bias supply where the output
voltage is limited only by the breakdown of external pass transistors Although designed primarily as linear series regulators the circuits can be used as switching regulators current regulators or in a number of other control applications Typical performance characteristics are Y Subsurface zener reference Y 1 mV regulation no load to full load Y 0 01% V line regulation Y 0 2 mV V ripple rejection Y 0 3% temperature stability over military temperature range The LM104 series is the complement of the LM105 positive regulator intended for systems requiring regulated negative
voltages which have a common ground with the unregulated supply By themselves they can deliver output currents to 25 mA but external transistors can be added to get any desired current The output
voltage is set by external resistors and either constant or foldback current limiting is made available The LM104 is specified for operation over the b55 C to a 125 C military temperature range The LM204 is specified for operation over the b25 C to a 85 C temperature range The LM304 is specified for operati...
