DESCRIPTION The Aeroflex Plainview VRG8661 consists of a Negative Adjustable (RH137) voltage regulator capable of supplying 1.5Amps over the output voltage range as defined under recommended operating conditions. The VRG8661 offers excellent line and load regulation specifications and ripple rejection. Dropout (Vin - Vout) decreases at lower load currents. The VRG8661 serves a wide variety of applications including High Efficiency Linear Regulators, Post Regulators for Switching Supplies, Constant Current Regulators, Battery Chargers and Microprocessor Supply. The VRG8661 has been specifically designed to meet exposure to radiation environments and is configured for a SMD-0.5 SMT power package. It is guaranteed operational from -55C to +125C. Available screened to MIL-STD-883, the VRG8661 is ideal for demanding military and space applications. 3 ADJ 2 VOUT RH137 Negative Regulator VIN 1 FIGURE 1 - BLOCK DIAGRAM / SCHEMATIC SCD8661 Rev F ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS PARAMETER RANGE UNITS Lead temperature (soldering 10 Sec) 300 C Input-Output Voltage Differential -30 VDC 2.000-3.999 1/ KV Operating Junction Temperature Range -55 to +150 C Storage Temperature Range -65 to +150 C ESD 1/ Meets ESD testing per MIL-STD-883, method 3015, Class 2 NOTICE: Stresses above those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device.
