LM117HVQML 3-Terminal Adjustable Regulator
Check for Samples: LM117HVQML,LM117HVQML-SP
1FEATURES DESCRIPTION
The LM117HV are adjustable 3-terminal positive
2 Available with Radiation Ensured voltage regulators capable of supplying either 0.5A or
Total Ionizing Dose 100 krad(Si) 1.5A over a 1.2V to 57V output range. They are
Low Dose Rate Qualified 100 krad(Si) exceptionally easy to use and require only two
external resistors to set the output voltage. Further,
Adjustable Output down to 1.2V both line and load regulation are better than standard
Specified 0.5A or 1.5A Output Current fixed regulators.
Line Regulation Typically 0.01%/V In addition to higher performance than fixed
Load Regulation Typically 0.1% regulators, the LM117HV series offers full overload
Current Limit Constant with Temperature protection available only in IC's. Included on the chip
are current limit, thermal overload protection and safe
Eliminates the Need to Stock Many Voltages area protection. All overload protection circuitry
80 dB Ripple Rejection remains fully functional even if the adjustment
Output is Short-Circuit Protected terminal is disconnected.
Normally, no capacitors are needed unless the device
is situated more than 6 inches from the input filter
capacitors in which case an input bypass is needed.
An optional output capacitor can be added to improve
transient response. The adjustment terminal can be
bypassed to achieve very high ripple rejections ratios
which are difficult to achieve with standard 3-terminal
regulators.
Besides replacing fixed regulators, the LM117HV is
useful in a wide variety of other applications. Since
the regulator is “floating” and sees only the input-to-
output differential voltage, supplies of several
hundred volts can be regulated as long as the
maximum input to output differential is not exceeded,
i.e. do not short the output to ground.
Also, it makes an especially simple adjustable
switching regulator, a programmable output regulator,
or by connecting a fixed resistor between the
adjustment and output, the LM117HV can be used as
a precision current regulator. Supplies with electronic
shutdown can be achieved by clamping the
adjustment terminal to ground which programs the
output to 1.2V where most loads draw little current.

(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 ensure specific performance limits. For ensured specifications and test conditions, see the
Electrical Characteristics. The ensured specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may
degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.
(2) The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJmax (maximum junction temperature),
θJA (package junction to ambient thermal resistance), and TA(ambient temperature). The maximum allowable power dissipation at any
temperature is PDmax = (TJmax - TA) / θJA or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. "Although power
dissipation is internally limited, these specifications are applicable for power dissipations of 2W for the PFM package and 20W for the
TO package."
(3) The package material for these devices allows much improved heat transfer over our standard ceramic packages. In order to take full
advantage of this improved heat transfer, heat sinking must be provided between the package base (directly beneath the die), and either
metal traces on, or thermal vias through, the printed circuit board. Without this additional heat sinking, device power dissipation must be
calculated using θJA, rather than θJC, thermal resistance. It must not be assumed that the device leads will provide substantial heat
transfer out the package, since the thermal resistance of the lead frame material is very poor, relative to the material of the package
base. The stated θJC thermal resistance is for the package material only, and does not account for the additional thermal resistance
between the package base and the printed circuit board. The user must determine the value of the additional thermal resistance and
must combine this with the stated value for the package, to calculate the total allowed power dissipation for the device.

APPLICATION HINTS
In operation, the LM117HV develops a nominal 1.25V reference voltage, VREF, between the output and
adjustment terminal. The reference voltage is impressed across program resistor R1 and, since the voltage is
constant, a constant current I1then flows through the output set resistor R2, giving an output voltage of
(1)
Figure 20.
Since the 100 μA current from the adjustment terminal represents an error term, the LM117HV was designed to
minimize IADJ and make it very constant with line and load changes. To do this, all quiescent operating current is
returned to the output establishing a minimum load current requirement. If there is insufficient load on the output,
the output will rise.
EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
An input bypass capacitor is recommended. A 0.1 μF disc or 1 μF solid tantalum on the input is suitable input
bypassing for almost all applications. The device is more sensitive to the absence of input bypassing when
adjustment or output capacitors are used but the above values will eliminate the possibility of problems.
The adjustment terminal can be bypassed to ground on the LM117HV to improve ripple rejection. This bypass
capacitor prevents ripple from being amplified as the output voltage is increased. With a 10 μF bypass capacitor
80 dB ripple rejection is obtainable at any output level. Increases over 10 μF do not appreciably improve the
ripple rejection at frequencies above 120 Hz. If the bypass capacitor is used, it is sometimes necessary to
include protection diodes to prevent the capacitor from discharging through internal low current paths and
damaging the device.
In general, the best type of capacitors to use are solid tantalum. Solid tantalum capacitors have low impedance
even at high frequencies. Depending upon capacitor construction, it takes about 25 μF in aluminum electrolytic to
equal 1 μF solid tantalum at high frequencies. Ceramic capacitors are also good at high frequencies; but some
types have a large decrease in capacitance at frequencies around 0.5 MHz. For this reason, 0.01 μF disc may
seem to work better than a 0.1 μF disc as a bypass.
Although the LM117HV is stable with no output capacitors, like any feedback circuit, certain values of external
capacitance can cause excessive ringing. This occurs with values between 500 pF and 5000 pF. A 1 μF solid
tantalum (or 25 μF aluminum electrolytic) on the output swamps this effect and insures stability. Any increase of
load capacitance larger than 10 μF will merely improve the loop stability and output impedance.
LOAD REGULATION
The LM117HV is capable of providing extremely good load regulation but a few precautions are needed to obtain
maximum performance. The current set resistor connected between the adjustment terminal and the output
terminal (usually 240Ω) should be tied directly to the output of the regulator rather than near the load. This
eliminates line drops from appearing effectively in series with the reference and degrading regulation. For
example, a 15V regulator with 0.05Ωresistance between the regulator and load will have a load regulation due to
line resistance of 0.05Ω× IL. If the set resistor is connected near the load the effective line resistance will be
0.05Ω(1 + R2/R1) or in this case, 11.5 times worse.

Figure 21 shows the effect of resistance between the regulator and 240Ωset resistor.
Figure 21. Regulator with Line Resistance in Output Lead
With the TO package, it is easy to minimize the resistance from the case to the set resistor, by using two
separate leads to the case. However, care should be taken to minimize the wire length of the output lead. The
ground of R2 can be returned near the ground of the load to provide remote ground sensing and improve load
regulation.
PROTECTION DIODES
When external capacitors are used with any IC regulator it is sometimes necessary to add protection diodes to
prevent the capacitors from discharging through low current points into the regulator. Most 10 μF capacitors have
low enough internal series resistance to deliver 20A spikes when shorted. Although the surge is short, there is
enough energy to damage parts of the IC.
When an output capacitor is connected to a regulator and the input is shorted, the output capacitor will discharge
into the output of the regulator. The discharge current depends on the value of the capacitor, the output voltage
of the regulator, and the rate of decrease of VIN. In the LM117HV, this discharge path is through a large junction
that is able to sustain 15A surge with no problem. This is not true of other types of positive regulators. For output
capacitors of 25 μF or less, there is no need to use diodes.
The bypass capacitor on the adjustment terminal can discharge through a low current junction. Discharge occurs
when either the input or output is shorted. Internal to the LM117HV is a 50Ωresistor which limits the peak
discharge current. No protection is needed for output voltages of 25V or less and 10 μF capacitance. Figure 22
shows an LM117HV with protection diodes included for use with outputs greater than 25V and high values of
output capacitance.
CURRENT LIMIT
Internal current limit will be activated whenever the output current exceeds the limit indicated in the Typical
Performance Characteristics. However, if during a short circuit condition the regulator's differential voltage
exceeds the Absolute Maximum Rating of 60V (e.g. VIN 60V, VOUT = 0V), internal junctions in the regulator may
break down and the device may be damaged or fail. Failure modes range from an apparent open or short from
input to output of the regulator, to a destroyed package (most common with the TO-220 package). To protect the
regulator, the user is advised to be aware of voltages that may be applied to the regulator during fault conditions,
and to avoid violating the Absolute Maximum Ratings.

(1) The marketing status values are defined as follows:
ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect.
NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design.
PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available.
OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device.
(2) Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)
(3) MSL, Peak Temp. -- The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.
(4) Multiple Top-Side Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one Top-Side Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a
continuation of the previous line and the two combined represent the entire Top-Side Marking for that device.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
