LM723

High precision voltage regulator

Features

Input voltage up to 40 V Output voltage adjustable from 2 to 37 V Positive or negative supply operation Series, shunt, switching or floating operation Output current to 150 mA without external pass transistor Adjustable current limiting
DIP-14

Description
The LM723 is a monolithic integrated programmable voltage regulator, assembled in 14-lead dual in-line plastic package. The circuit provides internal current limiting. When the output current exceeds 150 mA an external NPN or PNP pass element may be used. Provisions are made for adjustable current limiting and remote shutdown.
