LM350
3.0 A, Adjustable Output,
Positive Voltage Regulator
The LM350 is an adjustable three−terminal positive voltage
regulator capable of supplying in excess of 3.0 A over an output
voltage range of 1.2 V to 33 V. This voltage regulator is
exceptionally easy to use and requires only two external resistors to
set the output voltage. Further, it employs internal current limiting,
thermal shutdown and safe area compensation, making it essentially
blow−out proof.
The LM350 serves a wide variety of applications including local,
on card regulation. This device also makes an especially simple
adjustable switching regulator, a programmable output regulator, or
by connecting a fixed resistor between the adjustment and output, the
LM350 can be used as a precision current regulator.

4. Since Long−Term Stability cannot be measured on each device before shipment, this specification is an engineering estimate of average
stability from lot to lot.
5. Thermal Resistance evaluated measuring the hottest temperature on the die using an infrared scanner. This method of evaluation yields very
accurate thermal resistance values which are conservative when compared to the other measurement techniques.
6. The average die temperature is used to derive the value of thermal resistance junction to case (average).
