Description
The SGR137/SGR137A is fit, form and function
compatible to the SG137/SG137A with the addition of
guaranteed performance after radiation exposure to
Total Ionizing Dose (TID), Enhanced Low Dose Rate
Sensitivity (ELDRS), and Single Event Latch-up (SEL)
conditions. The SGR137A family of negative
adjustable regulators deliver up to 1.5A output current
over an output voltage range of -1.2V to -37V. The
device includes significant improvements, such as
better line and load regulation, and a maximum output
voltage error of 1%. The SGR137 family uses the
same chip design and guarantees maximum output
voltage error of ±2%.
Every effort is made to make these devices easy to use
and difficult to damage. Internal current and power
limiting coupled with true thermal limiting prevents
device damage due to overloads or shorts even if the
regulator is not fastened to a heat sink.
The SGR137/SGR137A family of products are ideal
complements to the SGR117A/117 adjustable positive
voltage regulators.
